Mochi is an emblem of Japanese pastry, known for its elastic texture and its characteristic ability to stick to itself.

In addition, its thermo-irreversible nature allows the dough to be worked at high temperatures without losing its properties, which extends its applications beyond pastry.

In their kitchens, we have found that this dough is extremely versatile and can be used in the preparation of gyozas, mochis, dumplings and other culinary formats.
