Fried Wagashi: a homemade version with weighed ingredients and detailed preparation.

Ingredients

600 g of food-grade wagashi made with pasteurized milk
30 g of olive oil
2 g of salt

Preparation

Purchase food-grade wagashi made with pasteurized milk and follow the storage and cooking instructions on its packaging. This sheet does not describe cheese making or the use of coagulating plants.

Cut the cheese into regular pieces and dry its surface with clean food paper.

Brown the wagashi in the measured oil in a pan, turning the pieces for about 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the product. This is pan-frying, not deep-frying.

Add salt and serve hot. The amount of oil actually retained is not measured.
