Frequently Asked Questions

→ Why freeze the filling?
Freezing the filling makes it easier to handle and wrap in the mochi dough. It also helps maintain shape while assembling.
→ Why strain the dough mixture?
Straining removes lumps and ensures a smooth, even texture in the final mochi. This is crucial for the proper chewy texture.
→ Can I use different fillings?
Yes, you can substitute the strawberry jam with other fruit jams or create custom cream cheese fillings. Keep proportions similar for proper texture.
→ How long do these keep?
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The mochi will gradually become firmer over time.
→ Why dust with rice flour?
Mochi is naturally sticky. Dusting with rice flour prevents it from sticking to surfaces and makes handling easier.
