- You use 180g aduki beans paste(anko).
- [Mochi Instructions] Rinse, dry, and hull the strawberries.
- Wet your hands and make 6 small aduki bean balls weighing around 30g each (using plastic gloves may be easier). Put aduki bean balls in the fridge for 15 minutes.

- With silicone spatula or kitchen scraper, fold the mochi in half one time so it won’t be as sticky and then divide into 6 equal pieces.

- Start covering the strawberry from all sides and use your thumb to hold the mochi on top.
