Although my child has food allergies, I wanted his to eat the same things as his brothers. That's how this recipe came about.

It's better to stir the mochi for a couple of times when microwaving.
Watch the mochi and adjust heating time (our microwave was at 700 W). The results will vary depending on the kind of mochi. Recipe by Toshihaya
