This video introduces a simple warabi mochi recipe that can be made using only two ingredients: tea and potato starch, and only a microwave and refrigerator. The process of mixing the dough and heating it in the microwave is repeated several times until it thickens and becomes translucent, then it is poured into a container and chilled in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to harden. Once the warabi mochi has hardened, it is finished by sprinkling it with a topping of kinako (roasted soybean flour) and sugar. It is a refreshing Japanese sweet that is perfect for summer, with a bouncy, chewy texture and a rich tea aroma. Since no heat is used, even cooking beginners can easily make it.
