Make Mochi 3 Ways
KAORI'S KITCHEN
In this class, we'll be making 3 types of mochi desserts: Hawaiian Butter Mochi, Mochi Ice Cream, and Daifuku Mochi (with your choice of filling). To prepare for this class, you'll need to gather the ingredients & equipment listed below. You'll also need to do a few steps before class:
PRE-CLASS STEPS
PRE-CLASS STEPS
- Scoop ice cream balls into a freezer-safe container and store in the freezer for at least 2 hours. The scoop size should be 2 inches wide (size of a golf ball) and you'll need 7 scoops. The ice cream will melt as we wrap mochi around it so the pre-scooped balls will make this step easier.
- Pre-heat oven to 350°F
- Set out ingredients & equipment
- Melt 1/2 cup of butter

ABOUT
Kaori's Kitchen is a culmination of Kaori and Yuki's love of cooking and their desire to share this love with those who also love food. Growing up as a "hapa" (half-Japanese) woman in the Bay Area, Kaori was surrounded by her mother Yukiko's Japanese home-cooking. After studying and specializing in ramen-from-scratch, Kaori taught classes at The Seasoned Farmhouse and Franklin Park Conservatory, centering around Asian cuisine. Asking her mother Yukiko, also a talented cook, to join her team was a natural move. Yukiko has been well-versed in mochi making for several years, making mochi for local festivals and bazaars in the Bay Area. Now, Kaori and Yukiko work together to offer mochi, ramen, udon and other Japanese cooking classes to the Bay Area and beyond.
