Shrimp in the Style of Sakura Mochi
I was chosen to be a cooking monitor.
The theme was "Spring Potluck Recipes to Enjoy with Kirin Free Beer." So I made these snacks that resemble sakura mochi to match the theme.
This is another version: "Butter Fried Potatoes with Shrimp".
Microwave the potatoes in the microwave for about 4 minutes.
If you pan-fry the potatoes for too long and they brown too much, they won't give a pretty pink color, so be patient and fry them on low heat. After pan-frying, heating them in the microwave will make them sticky. Recipe by mama deko

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Peel the potatoes and cut into four pieces each. Wrap in plastic wrap and heat in the microwave. Mash them while they're still hot. (I used a tupperware made for parboiling)
- 2
Use a mortar or similar utensil to finely grind the dried sakura shrimp. Add the sakura shrimp and katakuriko to the potatoes and mix together well. Season with a generous amount of salt and pepper.
- 3
Divide into 6 equal portions and wrap each between 2 pieces of boiled shrimp. Shape them neatly.
- 4
Put a generous amount of oil into a frying pan and pan-fry the potato balls. Slowly cook over low heat.
- 5
When both sides have become lightly browned, remove from the frying pan and heat in the microwave for 1 minute. (They'll become quite sticky.) Wrap each in a shiso leaf and they're all done.

(Use 2 to 3 leaves for 150 g of paste.)If you wrap sakura bean paste with mochi, the resultant sakura mochi will have a beautiful pink colour as in the top photo. Recipe by Makunouchi

Spring Sakura Mochi in the Microwave Spring Sakura Mochi in the Microwave
I made some salted sakura blossoms, so I made some sakura mochi. They came out beautifully and were delicious, and I was completely satisfied with how they turned out. Right after making these, I made 2 more batches to give as gifts. My friends were so happy.If serving the next day, place the somewhat hardened mochi into the microwave for 20-30 seconds.If there is too much excess moisture from the store bought koshi-an, cook it in a frying pan to evaporate the moisture. Then cover with a little bit of katakuriko. Or you can wait until it hardens a little, which will make it easier to form the shapes.If you want to be able to see the sakura blossoms even more, fold the sakura into the mochi first, and then spread out the mochi one more time.

Sakura Mochi Sakura Mochi
I learned this recipe in a yakuzen medicinal cooking class and tried making a less sweet version.Sakura leaves are supposedly good for coughs, relieving asthma and inflammation, bringing down fevers, in antidotes, and as hangover cures. They also supposedly work to increase blood pressure, help depression, regulate the stomach and intestines and stop diarrhea.About 5 minutes before you cook the rice, place the sakura leaves in water and de-salt them. When wrapping the mochi, wrap the leaf so that the veins are showing.If the rice cooker has a water level indicator for mochi rice, use that. If not, fill with water to just below the white rice line. Recipe by PANko -

Sakura mochi is pretty easy to make.But it is pretty difficult to get the salted sakura leaves.The sakura mochi will be filled with anko, so the mochi is slightly sweetened.Taste one salted sakura leaf, and if it is too salty, lightly soak the leave in water to remove excess salt.

Authentic Kanto-Style Sakura Mochi - Just Mix and Cook Authentic Kanto-Style Sakura Mochi - Just Mix and Cook
I've tried many different variations of this and finally settled on one I like.The cooked dough dries out really easily, so be sure to cover it with cling wrap or a dish towel (once it hardens, it's very hard to wrap). A Teflon crepe pan is the best for cooking the dough. The pickled sakura leaves are very salty, so be sure to soak them for a while. For 15. Recipe by Smuchi -

Easy Sakura Mochi (Cherry Blossom Rice Cake) from Cooked Rice Easy Sakura Mochi (Cherry Blossom Rice Cake) from Cooked Rice
I have learned how to make sakura mochi, but I didn't have rice flour, domyoji flour, or a cherry blossom leaf...I wanted to make a sakura mochi easily, so I came up with this recipe.-A little amount of the red food colouring is enough to turn the rice pink, so don't add too much. If you add too much, the rice turns red.-A pinch of salt gives the rice a salty kick, and it will taste like the authentic sakura mochi. If you don't have the salted cherry blossom leaf, add little more salt in the rice to adjust the taste. I taste the mixture at the Step 3, and adjust the taste to my liking. Recipe by Marrietty -
