Hehehe... Zun Master, and you, the lucky one who has reached this page...
Today is not just any recipe. I, myself, will personally teach you how to make the ultimate zunda mochi, which should be registered as a "World Heritage Site," nanoda!
Once you master this recipe, I guarantee that your life will start to shine in a zunda color from this day on, nanoda!
The Three Ultimate Rules, nanoda!
First, there are three laws you must carve into your heart, nanoda.
- Thou shalt mash the edamame while it is still hot from boiling! The aroma is completely different, nanoda!
- Thou shalt know the golden ratio of sugar to salt is "10:1"! The salt brings out the maximum sweetness of the sugar, nanoda!
- Thou shalt coat the mochi gently, with love! You must never knead it in, nanoda!
The Secret Recipe, nanoda
【Ingredients】
- Edamame (in pods): about 300g
- Sugar: 5 tablespoons (adjust to your liking, nanoda)
- Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- Cut mochi: As much as you want to eat
【Instructions】
- Boil the edamame with salt and remove them from the pods. Carefully remove the thin skin too. This is love, nanoda.
- Put the piping hot edamame in a mortar and mash them with all your might using a pestle! A food processor? That's heresy, nanoda!... But, well, I guess you can use it a little bit...
- Once it's mashed to some extent, add the sugar and salt, and mash further until it reaches your desired smoothness, nanoda!
- Soften the mochi, and generously coat it gently, gently, with the finished "zunda-an"... and it's complete, nanoda!
Now, you too, make it right away and embark on a journey to the paradise of zunda, nanoda!
I'll be waiting for your thoughts, nanodayo! 💚
