Chef Grant’s inspiration for the butter #mochi was to create a local favorite that didn’t have too much fat or sugar in it. This butter mochi uses considerably less butter and uses evaporated milk instead of sweetened condensed milk to reduce its glycemic index. Lots of local people are trying to eat food that has less sugar and fat in it and this mochi helps them eat a local favorite with less guilt.
