I wanted to make a fruit daifuku like a strawberry daifuku, so I tried it with grapes.

Repeat the microwaving process by microwaving for 1 minute and 30 seconds 3 times. If it still doesn't seem enough, microwave in 10 second increments until you reach your desired consistency. (Recipe yields 12 daifuku)
Since this gyuhi has sugar, it will not harden right away. Recipe by Pi-nattsu mama

Steps

1

Prepare the ingredients. Peel the skins from the grapes.
2

Mix the shiratamako, sugar, and water in a heat-proof dish.
3

Microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds and mix (this is how it should look after microwaving).
4

Microwave for another minute and a half, and mix (this is how it should look after the second round).
5

Repeat by microwaving for another minute and a half (this is how it should look after the final round). This is your gyuhi for the outer dough.
6

Divide the gyuhi into 12 equal portions on a working surface dusted with mochiko.
7

Flatten the pieces of gyuhi, spread on a layer of tsubu-an, place a grape on top, then wrap it up. (Repeat for the remaining dumplings)
8

Reshape the dumplings, then place them in an aluminium baking cup. They fit perfectly into a No. 6 baking cup.
