Warabi Mochi
Warabi Mochi is a chewy sweet, and nutty dessert popular in Japan during summer. It's different from typical mochi made using glutinous rice flour because it uses bracken starch. This recipe uses potato starch instead! So you can enjoy the unique Japanese treat without having to travel thousands of miles or grow your own bracken ferns at home.

and

together in a pot until all of the flour and sugar are well mixed with no lumps.
