I bought this awhile back from either Marukai or the swap meet. I'm glad I didn't "goodwill" it because I've been using it a lot recently.
You place a block of mochi into it, cover the mochi with water and microwave it at 500W for a minute or so. You flip the contraption over to drain out the water. Then you can enjoy the softened mochi however you like it.

Lately, I've been having it like this, topped with big-bean kuromame that my cousin V gave to me! Sooo oishiiiii!!
And because life is so synchronous, I found one at the swap meet this past Sunday and gave it to Cleta because she didn't have one.

I found mine and tried it with the kuromame too. Honto oishii!
Thought I trashed it because I've been cleaning out getting ready for the reno.

J, oohh cool item. Love your idea of eating mochi as a dessert. Gonna try as I've been using it only for breakfast ozonin. Better than actually making the mochi from scratch--which I bought the tool and raw materials--but too lazy. -N
Unreal!
cool!
Glad you kept it! And thanks for the kuromame!
Japan makes the coolest gadgets.
Those blocks are so easy and convenient.
Isn't it?!
And fast!
Ingenious
For sure!
