These bright green cubes? My new favorite summer snack — Warabi Mochi, a traditional Japanese jelly-like dessert made from bracken starch. Soft, wobbly, and dusted with golden kinako (roasted soybean powder), it tastes like matcha dreams wrapped in a chewy cloud ๐ซถ✨
First bite: I thought it was jelly… but nope — it’s more like a “breathing mochi pudding.” Not too sweet, just earthy, nutty, and refreshingly cool. Perfect for hot days or as a tea-time treat with green tea ☕️๐ฟ
⚠️ Heads up: Only good cold! If it warms up, it turns mushy — and that’s a crime against texture ๐
๐ง Pro tip: Keep it chilled until ready to eat — pop it out for a few mins before serving, and you’re golden. ๐งผ๐ง
