Last week I made a dish my mom enjoys so this week I decided to make one that my dad especially loves! I present to you: taiyaki! It’s a fish-shaped cake that’s filled with red bean paste. But you can fill it with any filling you like such as nutella, custard, and even peanut butter! There’s different styles of taiyaki but I like my mine super crispy on the outside yet chewy on the inside. In Korean, we call these guys bungeoppang (붕어빵)!
My mom told me about an anmitsu that she ate in Japan that she really enjoyed. So since it was her birthday soon, I decided to make her this delicious treat! If you didn’t know, anmitsu is a Japanese desert made with agar jelly topped with an array of delectables such as syrup, fruit, red bean paste, and shiratama dango. It’s so refreshing to eat during the summer! And even though it’s the end of summer, it’s still been pretty hot here in LA.
I made corn butter mochi before and on that video I received a comment about making the butter mochi instead with pumpkin, and so I definitely had to try it! It’s so good. I love everything pumpkin pie and this pumpkin butter mochi has the flavor of pumpkin pie but with the texture of chewy springy mochi! It’s also super easy to make.
