Mochi for the Housewarming

I've always wanted to try my hands on mochi making. Since Janet likes them too, it will be perfect to bringt these along for her housewarming.

I've adapted the recipe from here and here.





As I prefer more bite to my mochi, I've followed Do what I want's recipe largely, substituting the santan powder with matcha powder instead for the green hue and flavour. For the filling, I used store-bought red bean paste to save time. Initially I was worried the paste might turn out to be too sweet, thus coated the mochi with green bean powder. The combi was just right for me! *grin*
