Tamasan Shiratama-ko Glutinous Rice Flour 200g

Tamasan's Shiratama-ko is a glutinous rice flour made from 100% Japanese-grown mochi rice, produced by Kawamitsu, a specialist wagashi ingredient maker with deep roots in traditional Japanese confectionery. The flour is milled through a careful wet-grinding process that gives it an exceptionally fine, smooth texture — the kind that produces shiratama dumplings with a noticeably silky surface and firm, springy bite. One 200g bag makes approximately 40 shiratama balls. It dissolves and binds easily when kneaded with water, making it straightforward to use even without prior experience. Classic pairings include anmitsu, zenzai, and parfaits, though it also works well in daifuku, sakura mochi, and as a partial flour substitute in baked goods for a chewier texture. A reliable choice to keep in the pantry for Japanese sweets at home, and a thoughtful gift for anyone interested in making wagashi from scratch.
