❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Mochi Ice Cream
1. Can I use regular rice flour instead of sweet rice flour?
No, sweet rice flour also called mochiko is essential. Regular rice flour will not give the same chewy, stretchy texture. You can find mochiko in most grocery stores in the Asian foods section.
2. How do I keep the mochi from sticking to my hands?
Dust your hands generously with potato starch or cornstarch. You can also lightly dampen your hands with water to help prevent sticking while working with the dough.
3. Can I make this recipe dairy free or vegan?
Yes, use a dairy free ice cream like coconut or oat milk based. The mochi dough itself is vegan. Just check the ingredients of your ice cream to ensure it fits your needs.
4. How long do homemade mochi ice cream last?
Store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. After that the texture of the mochi may become too hard. For best flavor eat within a week.
5. My mochi dough is too sticky to handle. What should I do?
If the dough is too sticky, dust your hands and work surface with more potato starch. You can also pop the dough in the fridge for 5 minutes to firm up slightly. Just do not let it get cold or it will become hard to stretch.
