Clearspring Organic Japanese Gluten Free Brown Rice with Black Soya Bean Mochi has a hearty flavour and unique, chewy texture. Mochi is made from a short grain japonica glutinous brown rice which has been steamed, pounded into a paste and shaped into blocks and dried. It is a natural favourite in Japan and has the same calorific value as a small bowl of rice.

Mochi is a traditional food specially prepared and eaten during New Years celebrations in Japan. When cooked, these ‘cakes’ soften and puff up becoming delectably moist and chewy. Simply pan fry in a lightly oiled, covered pan over medium-low heat, turning once.

Mochi is as popular in Japan today, as it once was many centuries ago. Japanese farmers often consume mochi on cold winter days to increase their stamina while the Samurai would take mochi onto the battlefield because it was a great source of energy and easy to carry.
