麻糬 (móchi) is a traditional Asian dessert made from glutinous rice. The rice is steamed and then pounded until it becomes a sticky, smooth dough. This dough can be shaped into various forms and is often filled with sweet ingredients like red bean paste or fruit. In addition to its sweet variations, 麻糬 can also be enjoyed in savory dishes. It is commonly found in Chinese and Japanese cuisines, where it may be served as a snack or dessert. The chewy texture and versatility make 麻糬 a popular treat in many cultures.
