<< review queue entry 58541 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> I don't think it means "Japanese mochi". - Mochi is typically made from boiled glutinous rice that is pounded to a mash, then molded into shapes that fit into the hand. - Nian gao is typically made from glutinous rice *flour* (rather than rice grains) that is mixed with sugar and liquid ingredients, then steamed or baked. ------------------------- Wp ~ Mochi (餅) is Japanese rice cake made of mochigome, a short-grain japonica glutinous rice. The rice is pounded into paste and molded into the desired shape.
