Deliciously chewy and gooey.
That is what we first thought when we tried Mochi.
We tried it with glee.
With tea.
By the sea. In Japan. Truly.
Mochi is Japanese rice cake made of mochigome, a short-grain japonica glutinous rice, and sometimes other ingredients such as water, sugar, and cornstarch. The rice is pounded into paste and molded into the desired shape.
In Japan it is traditionally made in a ceremony called mochitsuki.
While also eaten year-round, mochi is a traditional food for the Japanese New Year and is commonly sold and eaten during that time.
The pounding process of making mochi originates from China, where glutinous rice has been grown and used for thousands of years
We’ve enjoyed it year round, primarily with soy sauce but others have tried it with varying sauces.
When you combine rice and seaweed, mochi is low in saturated fat and very low in cholesterol. It is also a good source of Vitamins A, C, E (Alpha Tocopherol), and K, Niacin, Pantothenic Acid, and Phosphorus.
Please remember, you must take your time and chew mochi well. There is no rush. Enjoy the mouth exercising journey.
We’ve always associated mochi with a heavier lunch or dinner meal so, as you might imagine, it came as a mild surprise to learn that mochi can be blended into a tasty ice cream confection.
Yes, we have enjoyed it with sweet beans as well.
The ice cream dessert has become very popular. Especially My/Mo Mochi Ice Cream.
Time for some taste testing. We visit the home of mymomochi.com and take our shoes off before we enter.
They smile, “It’s what’s inside that counts, right? Or what’s on the outside? Only one way to find out. Grab a My/Mo. Feel the curious coolness in your hand. Stretch it. Squeeze it. Take a nibble. Take a bite. Sink your tongue in and savor the flavor. Lick the powder off your lips. Wrap up that one last creamy, mochilicious mouthful. Verdict? Sweet mochi exterior, or velvety ice cream interior? You may just need another to decide.”
We would love another. We sense if you try this delightful comfort food, you will too.
The variety is astounding.
Back in October of 2019, they tickled dessert lover’s fancy with, take a deep breathe, peppermint.
They announced, “ My/Mo Mochi Ice Cream, America’s fastest growing frozen novelty brand, is welcoming the season of cheer with the launch of a brand new limited-edition flavor, Cool Peppermint. Putting their signature spin on a classic holiday favorite, My/Mo is giving fans everywhere another pillowy, creamy, flavor-packed reason to head to the freezer aisle.

What will they think of next?
Here is the description of it at Walmart, “6 pieces per box. Premium ice cream wrapped in a sweet, soft dough. 110 calories per serving. Mmmmy/Mo: My/Mo is a miraculous match of magnificent mochi dough with marvelously mouthwatering ice cream. But if you had to describe it with just one word, it’d be Mmmmm.

Good, because there is more.
The team that makes this sweet afternoon or evening delight has a message for you.
