What Do Japanese Mochi Rice Cakes Taste and Feel Like?
Plain mochi itself is not a food with a strong sweetness or salty flavor.
Its biggest feature is its unique texture, often described as soft, chewy, and sticky.
Because the taste is relatively simple, mochi goes well with many ingredients, including red bean paste, kinako soybean flour, soy sauce, and matcha green tea. This is why many ways of eating mochi have developed in Japan.
What Is Mochi Made From?
The main ingredient in traditional mochi is glutinous rice.
After being soaked in water, the rice is steamed and pounded until it becomes sticky, creating the smooth, chewy texture unique to mochi.
In the traditional way of making mochi, people pound glutinous rice using an usu mortar and kine mallet.
This process is called mochitsuki, and it has been passed down in Japan as a culture where families and local communities gather together.
It is one part of Japanese culture that has a especially strong connection with the New Year.
On the other hand, mochi sweets sold today use many different ingredients depending on the product, such as glutinous rice flour, sugar, red bean paste, kinako, matcha, fruit, and more.
Recommended Ways to Enjoy Rice Cakes
If you are going to try Japanese mochi, why not enjoy together with Japanese drinks?
The Classic Choice: Enjoy Mochi with Japanese Tea
The first pairing we recommend with mochi is Japanese tea.
After eating sweet mochi, tea helps refresh your mouth.
Sencha and roasted hojicha tea both pair well with mochi.
Example: UJINOTSUYU-SEICHA (IYEMON CHA) Instant Stick Japanese Tea

Matcha Is Also an Excellent Pairing
The mild bitterness of matcha and the gentle sweetness of mochi go very well together.
If you are interested in Japanese sweets or Japanese tea, why not enjoy a relaxing tea time from your own home?
Example: KATAOKA Tsujiri Matcha Latte 10P (Instant)
