Directions
In a bowl, mix sugar, water and rice flour together. Make sure mixture is fully emulsified, clean sides of bowl with a spatula.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and microwave for 1 min
Stir with whisk to get rid of clumps, then put in the microwave again for 1 more minute.
Take out of the microwave then wet your spatula as you continue to mix. Do not use whisk from this point on as the mixture has become too sticky. Then put it in the microwave one more time, 30 seconds.
On a dusted flour board, pour mochi. Roll even until 0.5 inch thick. Dust with cornstarch repeatedly. Place in fridge for 20 mins until cold and set
Dust again with cornstarch, then use a circular cutter to cut out as many circles as possible. For a 2 inches ice cream scoop (pre scooped ice cream), a 3.5 inches, 3.25 inches circular cutter works perfectly.
Work quickly. Wrap with plastic wrap moderately tightly so that ice cream doesn't melt. Store in muffin tins to retain shape one at a time to maintain the temperature of ice cream.
