Everyone say hi!!

^ that's Elissa
(i'm not sure if she's goign to laugh at the pic or kill me... i'm pretty sure laugh)
She found this awesome mochi recipe and taught me how to make it!

You will need:
* 1 cup glutinous rice flour
* 1/4 cup sugar
* 3/4 cup water
* 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
* cornstarch
* microwavable bowl
* cutting board
* plastic wrap
* knife greased with oil
* mixing spoon
* sifter


Batter:
Mix the following in a microwavable bowl:
* 1 cup glutinous rice flour
* 1/4 cup sugar
* 3/4 cup water
* Add 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract


Combine flour, sugar and water



Add 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Mix together


COVER BOWL WITH PLASTIC WRAP - IMPORTANT
Microwave for 2 mins, then mix, and microwave for 30 seconds


While the batter is mixing in the microwave, cover a cutting board with plastic wrap and coat with cornstarch.
(mochi is VERY sticky; cornstarch will help it not stick to everything)


Add the microwaved batter onto cutting board and cover in cornstarch

Let it cool


Spread out mochi mixture, and cut with a greased knife


make sure you coat all sides of the mochi with cornstarch so they don't stick together

sift off excess cornstarch from mochi pieces

sprinkle mochi on ice cream and serve!!!!
