Butter Mochi: A Taste of Hawaii

This is a butter mochi that my friend made for me based on a recipe from Ku:nel magazine.
Thanks to this butter mochi, I got over my hesitation with coconut milk.
Japanese mochiko is high quality, but if you make it with the mochiko they sell in Japan, it ends up being really like mochi cakes, which isn't quite right for butter mochi. Dango flour made from a mix of non-glutinous rice and sticky rice is probably better. If you can get your hands on the Koda Farms brand Mochiko that they sell in Hawaii and the States, that's probably the best! It's just the right balance of chewiness and stickiness.

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 -
