Make delicious ohagi in no time whenever you feel like it! Even with just white rice, these turn out chewy and tasty, just like real ohagi. Enjoy them with plenty of kinako (roasted soybean flour) or sweet red bean paste. If you have leftover anko (sweet red bean paste), definitely give this a try! [Featured on 2008/03/26]
Recipe background:
I love Japanese sweets with anko. During the equinox, I wanted to eat classic ohagi, but only had white rice, so I made this quick and easy ohagi (botamochi) variation. They’re perfect as a snack with matcha or other teas!
