Matcha Tiramisu with Warabi Mochi
Tiramisu with Mochi?!
Do you know Warabi mochi?
It is a Japanese confection. It's one of the Mochi kinds, but the texture is more jelly type, not as sticky as regular mochi. It's traditionally made with Warabi bracken starch, but since it's limited ingredient, there is a substitute, Warabi Mochiko which is made of sweet potato or tapioca.
This Tiramisu contains this sweet Warabi Mochi, and it’s a delightful combination!
