<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Mochi is one of my favourite breakfast foods! I like to cut it into 1 inch squares and bake it. I then drizzle GF rice syrup, maple syrup, or honey, over them and eat like mini muffins or pop-overs. I have also grilled and split it (so that it resembles two slices of bread: kind of tricky!) and then stuffed with a variety of sandwich fillings. Mochi can also be steamed. I put it on top of veggies (small cubes of it) in a steamer basket (this is a macrobiotic style recipe). The mochi melts, almost like cheese, or a chewy biscuit crust. Use GF soy suace (or Bragg's Liquid Aminos), or Gomasio and you have a quick, one pot, super healthy supper. mochi comes in plain,cinnamon,pizza flavors that are GF. High in carbs buy from oreintal market or health food store and some markets mochi is good for a pie crust,pastry and desserts drizzle maple syrup over after baked in oven mochi is like a popover mochi is sweet rice mochi is excellent in a waffle iron to make pizza crust I hope this helps and thank you for all who wrote in..
