Many kinds of traditional Japanese sweets are made from mochi such as daifuku, a round mochi with sweet fillings such as red bean paste, white bean paste, or strawberries.

It’s too much work roasting Heating, whatever it is and it didn’t turn out right and I don’t know how to do the correct way there’s no really a good instruction or the recipes for this so specially someone who is not Japanese someone who’s trying to try it for the first time, have no clue
JTJapanese Taste INT3/15/25Dear Christina,
Thank you for sharing your experience with mochi preparation. I understand that it can be a bit challenging, especially for those trying it for the first time. For optimal results, I recommend placing the mochi in a bowl of water and microwaving it for 1 to 1 minute and 40 seconds on a 600w setting. Alternatively, if you prefer using a toaster oven, heat it for approximately 4 to 7 minutes, then turn off the heat and leave it inside for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Mochi is incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in various ways, whether in savory dishes like miso soup or as delightful desserts. Consider pairing it with kinako, wrapping it with bacon or nori, or serving it with sweet azuki red bean paste for a delicious treat. I hope you find these tips helpful and enjoy experimenting with this delightful Japanese delicacy!
Best regards,
