Hello everybody, it is Louise, welcome to our recipe page. Today, I will show you a way to prepare a special dish, warabi mochi. One of my favorites food recipes. For mine, I will make it a bit tasty. This is gonna smell and look delicious.
Warabimochi (蕨 餅, warabi-mochi) is a jelly -like confection made from bracken starch and covered or dipped in kinako (sweet toasted soybean flour). It differs from true mochi made from glutinous rice. Warabi Mochi is a chilled, deliciously chewy, jelly-like mochi covered with sweet and nutty soybean powder and drizzled with kuromitsu syrup. I usually spend my summers in Japan with my children, and that's when they explore new Japanese foods that are not always available in the SF Bay Area.

Warabi Mochi: a jelly-like confection made from Bracken starch and covered in kinako (sweet toasted soybean flour). Unlike traditionally mochi made from glutinous rice flour, warabi mochi has more of a jelly-like consistency. As the name indicates, "Warabi Mochi (わらび餅") is a simple jelly-like confection traditionally made from bracken-root starch called "Warabiko (わらび粉)" and sweetened with sugar. It is chewy like real Mochi rice cake and typically served with Kinako roasted soybean flour and Kuromitsu black molasses syrup.
Steps to make Warabi Mochi:
- Combine Potato Starch and Sugar in a saucepan. Add Water (warm tap water preferred) and mix well. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until colour turns completely transparent. Remove from the heat, but keep stirring for 20-30 seconds to let it firm up.
- *Alternatively you can cook in microwave in medium power. Cooking time depends on your machine. I set my machine at 600W, cook 2 minutes, STIR UP very well, then cook 1 to 1 & 1/2 minutes and STIR well.
- Prepare Water and Ice Cubes in a bowl. Using two wet spoons, drop 1 tablespoonful of the gooey mixture into the icy water. The mixture will instantly harden.
- Drain well, and place in a serving bowl. Enjoy with Kinako (Grourd Roasted Soy Beans) and Muscovado Syrup. *See ‘How to make Muscovado Syrup’ at my ‘Milk Kuzu-mochi’ recipe page. https://cookpad.com/uk/recipes/2180101-milk-kuzu-mochi
- *Note: You may wish to use Milk instead of Water for better taste and nutrition benefit. I like Milk Mochi better.

Warabi Mochi is made from braken fern starch, which makes it more jelly-like than mochi made with rice, and it is served rolled in kinako.
