Why don't you enjoy simple mochi sweets in the microwave this winter? Introducing the kitchen tool "Range Mochiami & Mochitsuki Set" developed by Akira Sangyo.


A product that includes a microwave oven cooking utensil "Range Mochiami ", a ball for "mochitsuki", and a spatula. First, put the mochi on the rice cake and heat it in the microwave. When it becomes soft, transfer it to a bowl, add your favorite ingredients, and use a spatula to make it sticky and mochi. When the mochi and ingredients are mixed, cut them into pieces and shape them to complete. You can enjoy various variations such as "sesame rice cake" with gum syrup and shavings, "chocolate rice cake" with gum syrup and cocoa powder, "zunda mochi" with gum syrup and edamame, and sugar.















It's very easy to use, but it also has some drawbacks. Since the mochi tends to harden quickly, it is difficult to completely mix the gum syrup, resulting in a slightly sticky finish. Rather than making full-fledged Japanese sweets, it seems to be a good item for casually enjoying the arrangement of mochi.

"Range Mochiami & Mochitsuki Set" is sold at various mail-order sites. I bought it from Amazon.co.jp and the price was 586 yen. Why don't you put it on standby in the kitchen for the year-end and New Year holidays when toys are often used?
