The warabi mochi I tasted in the deli section of a department store was delicious, but it was also expensive. So, I decided to make it myself!

I used a warabi starch that was a blend of lotus root starch and bracken starch (5%) as pure warabi starch is expensive.
If you like your mochi softer, add up to 130 ml of water. This will make it soft-set. Recipe by Harapekokuriro
