Ingredients

  • 100 g glutinous rice flour (shiratamako)
  • 150 ml water
  • 50 g sugar
  • Corn starch
  • 6 to 8 scoops ice cream (vanilla, matcha, strawberry, etc.)

Directions

  1. Roll the ice cream into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze them for at least 1 hour until they are firm.
  2. In a bowl, mix the glutinous rice flour, sugar and water until smooth.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave for 1 minute on medium power.
  4. Stir with a spatula, then return to the microwave for another minute. The mixture should become translucent and sticky.
  5. Sprinkle a work surface with cornstarch and place the warm dough on top.
  6. Gently roll it out with a floured rolling pin until it is about 3 mm thick. Cut out circles about 8–10 cm in diameter.
  7. Place a scoop of ice cream in the center of a dough disk. Gently fold the dough around the ice cream and pinch to seal.
  8. Return it to the freezer immediately for 30 minutes before serving.
