If you enjoy the occasional treat that you can't find growing in a garden, these delightful Korean rice cakes are worth trying.

Called Green Tea Mochi, they have a jelly-like exterior that is made with glutinous rice powder and potato powder, and a sweet bean filling. Green tea powder is a part of both the outer jelly and inner bean paste, and most people add a bit of sugar and vegetable oil to the bean filling.

You can find these lovely treats at Korean food markets, usually in the refrigerated section. They're also available at Amazon: Green Tea Mochi

If you happen to find some Green Tea Mochi cakes, please consider posting and tagging me at Instagram or Facebook - I'd love to see the variety of rice cakes out there.

Hi Ben. I've only had Green Tea Mochi once, but loved them. I Googled Green Tea Mochi and clicked on "images" ... do the same if you want to see some real variety. Also ... you come up with recipes for many many things ... how about one for Green Tea Mochi?
