Instructions

1. Mix the Mochiko with 3/4 cup water in a heatproof bowl until well combined; if too dry, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time.
2. Steam the dough in its bowl for 20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, heat 3/4 cup water with the sugar in a medium pot until the sugar dissolves to make a syrup.
4. Transfer the steamed mochi to a pot over medium-low to low heat and mix in the sugar syrup, stirring constantly, until fully incorporated and sticky. Take care not to burn it.
5. Turn the hot mochi out onto a sheet pan generously dusted with cornstarch, then shape and cut as you like.
