Make Chewy Bread with Mochi

We received a bunch of mochi for my daughters first birthday and I cut it up and then left it in the freezer for ages. To be honest, I don't really like mochi, but it's considered lucky so it didn't seem right to throw it away.
Then I saw a recipe that involved kneading cooked rice into bread dough so I thought, maybe you can make bread with mochi too!?
After heating and melting the mochi, add water back to the mix to bring it to 220 g. A lot of water is lost in the heating process.
Every oven is different and has it's own quirks, so please adjust this recipe based on how you know your oven works. The information here is just how it works best in my oven. Recipe by Chibato

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Here's the mochi I received. It was hard work to cut it up.
- 2
Put the mochi and water in a bowl and heat for a minute at 1000W in the microwave. Continue to heat as needed a little at a time until the mochi has dissolved. You could also do this on the stove.
- 3
Once fully melted, it should be thick as seen in this picture. Leave it to cool until it is just warm to the touch.
- 4
Important! A lot of water will have evaporated while it was heating, so weigh it again and add water to the mix as needed to bring it to 220 g.
- 5
Add this in with the other ingredients in your bread maker, set it to rise for 35 to 45 minutes (depending on the outside temperature) and turn it on!
- 6
After the first rise it should look like this. It has already risen quite a bit.
- 7
Dust your work surface with flour and then take out the dough and press the air out. Cut it up and roll it into three or four pieces.
- 8
Smear butter on your pan and then line up the bread rolls inside and let them rise for another 40 to 50 minutes.
- 9
When baking with a square pan, once the bread has risen to within 1 cm of the edge of the pan cover it and let it bake for 35 minutes ta 200°C.
- 10
All done baking!
- 11
Mountain Style Dust the top of the bread with flour and make a slit along the top of the dough. Cook in an oven preheated to 180°C for 20 minutes. If you think the bread might burn, wrap it in aluminum foil.
- 12
It turned out nice and fluffy.

Revised Mochi Bread Revised Mochi Bread
I changed the recipe a little. I used to make these after heating the ingredients and they would be nice and chewy but there were times when they didn't cook so well, so I changed a few ingredients and steps.Please use 100% rice flour products if you decide to use shiratamako. If it's part non-glutinous then the mochi bread won't become as chewy. They taste best straight out of the oven but if you can't finish them all, put them in a bag and warm them up in the microwave when you want to eat them. For 20 - 25 servings.

Chewy Steamed Bread with Mochiko & Pancake Mix Chewy Steamed Bread with Mochiko & Pancake Mix
I really wanted to eat a chewy steamed bread so I tried it at first with shiratamako. That didn't go too well, since shiratamako is supposed to be used for dango dumpling-like recipes, so I tried with mochiko instead and it worked!Pancake mix is quite sweet but mochiko isn't, so it's better to use more sugar here than in a 100% pancake mix recipe.This bread has a very light flavour so it's most delicious when served with a sweet spread like jam. For 6-10 servings. Recipe by Pukuttopukumaru cookpad.japan -

Chewy Daikon Mochi Chewy Daikon Mochi
I've posted this recipe here because these daikon mochi were so well-received.I'm going to keep on experimenting with different ratios and/or measurements of the flour and katakuriko, or try mixing in other ingredients.I wonder how they'll turn out if I use joshinko or shiratamako.Maybe you should keep some liquid from the radish in case you need to adjust its firmness later.I've written to steam-fry over low heat to make them soft (so that they're edible for toddlers), but they'll also turn out amazing if you fry them over medium low heat until they're nice and crispy.
