About Japanese mochi
Mochi is a traditional Japanese treat made from glutinous rice, which is steamed, pounded, and shaped into soft, chewy cakes. It’s a staple in Japanese cuisine and is often enjoyed during special occasions like New Year celebrations. Mochi can be plain or filled with ingredients such as sweet red bean paste, matcha, or fruit. Nutritionally, mochi is low in fat and contains a moderate amount of carbohydrates, making it a quick source of energy. It is naturally gluten-free, appealing to those with dietary restrictions. However, mochi is calorie-dense and can be high in sugar when sweetened or served with added fillings. It’s also important to chew mochi thoroughly due to its sticky texture, as it may pose a choking risk. Whether eaten on its own or as part of a dessert, mochi offers a unique combination of flavor, texture, and cultural heritage.
