Japanese New Year's Mochitsuki

I wrote about Japanese New Year and my visit to Hozomon here, but I found some pictures I forgot to post. In Japan it is common to eat fresh rice cake for New Year. In Japan it is tradition to make fresh Mochi (Rice pounded into paste) and to eat it with different flavors.

Mochitsuki

Mochi with Kinako, Sweat Sauce and Redbeans

There are various forms of Mochi

If you are interested in Mochi (which is super delicous) you might want to check out this website. I love mochi, I could eat mochi the whole day. But beware if you are older than 70, every year dozen of old people die because mochi is very sticky and they eat it to fast on new year and they choke to death. Mochi can be eaten sweat or with soup, it can be baked or eaten with ice etc.

Did you knew Mochi before this post ???
