Ingredients
100 g glutinous rice flour
30 g cornstarch
45 g granulated sugar
180 g milk
20 g vegetable oil
A small amount of food coloring
500 g fresh peach
150 g water
100 g granulated sugar
10 g lemon juice
200 g heavy cream
20 g sugar
Instructions
- Wash, peel, and core the peaches, reserving the skins. Chop the peach flesh into small cubes, mix with sugar, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Add the peach skins and water to a saucepan and boil for 5 minutes. Strain out the skins, then add the peach cubes and cook over medium heat, stirring until softened and thickened.
- Stir in the lemon juice and continue cooking until the filling thickens. Let it cool completely.
- In a bowl, combine glutinous rice flour, cornstarch, granulated sugar, and milk. Add a small drop of food coloring and mix well, then add vegetable oil and mix until smooth.
- Pour the batter into a nonstick pan and cook over medium heat, stirring continuously until it forms a stretchy dough that no longer sticks to the pan. Knead until smooth and elastic.
- Whip the heavy cream with sugar until stiff peaks form. Transfer to a piping bag and chill until ready to use.
- Lightly dust the work surface, rolling pin, and dough with flour. Roll the dough into a log and divide into 8 equal pieces.
- Flatten each piece into a round, fill with whipped cream and peach filling, then wrap and seal. Place each mochi in a cupcake liner and serve.
Notes
Substitute peaches with nectarines or mango for variation.
Add vanilla extract to whipped cream for extra flavor.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 1 day.
Let mochi sit at room temperature briefly before serving for best texture.
Avoid reheating as it affects texture.
Canned peaches can be used if drained well.
