Ingredients
  

Mochi Ingredients

  • 1 cup mochiko (sweet rice flour) Mochiko gives the mochi its chewy texture.
  • 3/4 cup filtered water Add gradually to achieve smooth dough.
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar Adjust sweetness based on preference.
  • 1/4 cup potato starch For dusting to prevent sticking.

Fresh Fruit

  • 3 pieces ripe peaches Choose ripe peaches for the best flavor and texture.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Wash and halve the peaches, removing the pits.

Making Mochi Dough

  • In a bowl, mix mochiko and sugar. Gradually add water while stirring until smooth.

Cooking the Mochi

  • Transfer the mixture to a microwave-safe dish. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 2 minutes.
  • Stir the mixture and then microwave for another minute until it becomes sticky.

Shaping the Mochi

  • Dust a clean surface with potato starch. Scoop out small portions of the mochi dough and flatten them into circles.
  • Place a peach half in the center of each circle.

Wrapping

  • Fold the mochi around the peach and pinch the edges to enclose it completely.

Chilling

  • Place the wrapped mochi on a starch-dusted plate and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.

Notes

Serve chilled and consider garnishing with extra potato starch or fresh mint leaves. For an additional twist, serve with vanilla ice cream.
