Butter mochi introduction

Butter mochi is a confectionery made by adding glutinous rice soaked in water overnight, adding other ingredients (butter, flour, egg yolk, sugar, etc.) and mixing. By adding butter, it is difficult to harden over time, and the soft texture of the mochi is maintained, so you can enjoy it as it is without baking. In October 2011, it was certified as a local specialty of Kitaakita City as a local original confectionery, and its unique texture and taste have been well received.
