Hi there
Whenever I got to Meidiya Japanese Supermarket, my husband or me will get some mochi home as snack, they have these ready to eat mochi available in the supermarket, actually near the cashier, and we usually get just a pack which is our old favourites, red bean mochi.
So this time round, I thought I will try out something new, and decided to get Ohagi which is basically Japanese Sweet Rice Balls.
Unlike the regular mochi which is made of mochi flour, these sweet rice balls, is really using rice or glutinous rice. So the texture is not as chewy.
