Hello, I am a Japanese/Chinese American from the United States. Since I was a kid, my heritage has created a love and curiosity for the Japanese culture, language, and traditions. In my channel, you will find videos of my experiences as well as a daily vlog I did in summer 2016. Welcome and thanks for visiting and having interest in my channel!
Hello mr. Kenji..very nice video u got here..😆😆👍👍 questions..did u mean u soaked the rice right away after u cleaned n grinded them n then wait for 2 days before u take’em n start making the mochi??or did u mean start soaking the rice in the day u wanna make as long is not less than 2 days after they got cleaned and grided??and also what powder did u (or they) use for the tray in the video before u have the rice transfered onto it??thank you in advace..😇😇🙏🙏
@@seiikei I'm telling from my own experience. No. That rice was a huge disappointment. Regular rice was just lame. It should be a specific nice smelling rice, preferably from Japan. Other types just make it bitter, which is not a way for the dessert mochi. You can make it feel the same, look the same, but the taste will be bad.
I learned this when I lived in Japan. In elementary school we took a field trip to a Japanese school, it was amazing learning their culture and seeing how different it was than ours. We each had a Japanese student as a partner, and we got to make our own mochi! It was so cool and delicious!
My daughter sent me an Instagram post on how to make mochi because I used to buy traditional mochi for her when she was young. The "recipe" included ice cream bars and rice flour. I sent her this video.
It's always frustrating to see something being called "mochi" but then learn it's just dango. I like dango. But it's so damn hard to find *mochi* out here in the States lol.
Thumbs down only because of the pointless annoying unnecessary background muzak. Otherwise it would be thumbs up. Narration is all that is needed here.
i used to celebrate mochitsuki at my old japanese school but now I just gave up on trying to learn the language. Kinda a disapointment to my family lmao.
