Namaichiban Kirimochi (Rice Cake) 400g

Namaichiban Kirimochi is a high-quality Japanese rice cake made from carefully selected Japanese glutinous rice. These individually cut kirimochi blocks puff beautifully when heated, developing a crispy outside and irresistibly soft, chewy inside.

A staple in Japanese households, kirimochi is enjoyed year-round-from traditional New Year dishes to quick snacks and comforting meals. Simple ingredients and traditional preparation bring out the natural sweetness and smooth texture of real Japanese mochi.

Kirimochi is extremely versatile and easy to prepare:

• Grill or Toast
  Heat in a toaster oven, oven, or frying pan until puffed and lightly golden. Enjoy with soy sauce, butter, sugar, or wrapped in nori.

• Boil or Simmer
  Add directly to soups such as ozōni or hot pot dishes until soft.

• Sweet or Savory
  Serve with kinako (roasted soybean powder), red bean paste, honey, or use in savory dishes like stir-fries and gratins.
