Mochi is Japanese rice cake consisting of mochigome, a short-grain japonica glutinous rice, and sometimes water, sugar, and cornstarch. The rice is pounded into paste and molded into the desired shape and filled sometimes with bean paste.
Mochi ice cream is a made from Japanese mochi with an ice cream filling replacing the paste.
It’s delicious!
I love mochi. They sell it at the Japanese store in my town, and I buy it often.
They also sell mochi ice cream. I tried it once, and it’s good. I think the flavor I bought was strawberry.
