Extra Edition: Children's Day Stream
"Today, we’re making ."
Top Chat: Yes
Top Chat: Feels like we get these snack-making streams once a month
Top Chat: It’s becoming a regular thing now
"First, put 200 grams of joshinko flour and one and a half tablespoons of sugar into a bowl."
Top Chat: Okay
Top Chat: Uh, what’s joshinko?
Top Chat: Flour made from rice
"Depending on your preference, you can mix in about 10% potato starch or shiratamako flour too. It makes the dough softer."
Top Chat: Then, what’s shiratamako?
Top Chat: Flour made from rice
Top Chat: That’s the same thing!
"Now pour in boiling water and stir well with a spatula."
Top Chat: Still can’t get used to that sentence ending lol
Top Chat: Feels like some weird personal quirk
"Once it’s cooled down a bit, knead it by hand, divide it into about ten portions, and flatten them."
Top Chat: Isn’t that tiny?
Top Chat: Maybe it puffs up?
"Steam them for ten minutes."
Top Chat: Here it comes
Top Chat: Yeah, let’s go
"And here’s what it looks like after waiting."
Top Chat: Knew it lol
Top Chat: They’re still small
Top Chat: Didn’t really puff up
"Now gather them back together, knead, and add the red bean paste filling."
Top Chat: Oh, I know this, it turned into kashiwa-mochi
Top Chat: So you combine them like that
Top Chat: All that’s left is wrapping it in oak leaves
"Done."
Top Chat: Oi lol
Top Chat: Where are the leaves lol
Top Chat: That’s just bean paste rice cakes without the leaves!
"You’re gonna peel the leaves off anyway, right?"
Top Chat: Well… yeah, but still
Top Chat: There’s this weird manly vibe about that
"Kyoka, eat the kashiwa-mochi."
"Kashiwa-mochi? Did you make this, Onii-chan?"
"Yeah."
"Thanks for the food~"
Top Chat: Kyoka-chan eating kashiwa-mochi with a paper samurai helmet on
Top Chat: Is she a kid?
Top Chat: Doesn’t matter, she’s cute!
"How’s the texture?"
"Mmm. I think I’d prefer it a little softer."
"I see."
"But it’s tasty!"
Top Chat: Oh no! The adjusted second batch has been loaded into the steamer!
Top Chat: Notice it, Kyoka-chan!
