Walnut Paste for Mochi

We always have this at New Year's! My mother-in-law taught me how to make it for my husband, but she just eyeballs the ingredients to taste. I prepared it to suit my husband's taste.
Mix in a little hot water before serving.
My mother-in-law taught me this recipe, but it's a little different from how she makes it. Maybe the difference depends on whether you use a food processor or a mortar and pestle.
It's mildly sweet, so adjust the amount of sugar to taste. Recipe by Fuminon

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Finely chop the walnuts with a food processor. (They also taste delicious if you grind them with a motar and pestle. In that case, grind with little bit of hot water.)
- 2
When the walnuts are smooth, add the sugar, salt, and soy sauce and mash it all together. It's done!

My family and friends loved this when I made it for New Year's. It worked perfectly as a snack paired with tea. The walnut topping gave it a fancy appearance and tasted great. I brought it to a party and it was a big hit, so I uploaded the recipe.This mochi is similar to gyuhi, so unlike kirimochi (cut mochi), it's easy to eat for both young and old. It's also cut into small, easy-to-eat pieces. The cinnamon in the dusting makes it even more delicious. Adjust cooking times to your microwave. Recipe by miyuki12 cookpad.japan -

So Soft Buttered Mochi So Soft Buttered Mochi
I usually pound mochi rice to make it, but I tried using cut mochi this time to simplify things a bit. Since I've discovered I could use cut mochi to make spongy buttered mochi, here's the recipe for you to try!I recommend you soften the store-bought mochi decently before mixing because it's quite sticky. Use homemade mochi or Japanese rice mochi for the best results.It's really soft when it's done, so please chill in the fridge (or in the freezer if you're rushing) before slicing. Take care to coat the sliced surfaces of the mochi so they don't stick together! Recipe by Rei no oryouri cookpad.japan -

Sakura-mochi with Chunky Sweetened Adzuki Bean Paste Sakura-mochi with Chunky Sweetened Adzuki Bean Paste
Usually, you fill sakura-mochi with koshi-an. But as I refer tsubu-an, I filled the mochi with it.The food coloring is quite strong so use a tiny amount.The sweetened dough is very sticky so you need to moisten your hands to put a portion onto the plastic wrap and wrap the bean paste in it. The resultant look will be better.If the bean paste is too runny, boil away the excess moisture first. Otherwise it will be very sticky when you try to shape it. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. Recipe by Happy sarubobo cookpad.japan -
Homemade Chunky Red Bed Paste for Ohagi and Mochi Homemade Chunky Red Bed Paste for Ohagi and Mochi
My husband I both love anko!This is our recipe, that uses light brown sugar.-In Step 3, lower the temperature briefly so that the heat will cook through the beans. This way, they will become fluffy.-In Step 7, make the aluminum lid larger then the pot with the overlap as handles since you'll have to take it on and off a lot in the following steps.-In Step 14, the beans will absorb other odors easily, so make sure to double wrap for later use.
