Daifuku (大福: literally “great luck”) is a traditional Japanese confectionery (和菓子 wagashi). It is a mochi (glutinous rice cake) stuffed with anko (azuki – red bean paste).
Ichigo (strawberry) daifuku is a rice cake with strawberry and red bean paste filling.
In this tutorial, I will show you how to make Ichigo Daifuku using Kiri-mochi (square pieces of rice cake, packed individually). I’m sure you can get Kiri-mochi at Azian grocery stores 😀
