Popuis

Popuis is a term that refers to a type of traditional Japanese confectionery, specifically a type of mochi. Mochi is a rice cake made from glutinous rice flour, water, and sometimes sugar. Popuis, however, is a specific variety of mochi that is typically made from a mixture of sweet rice flour and sugar, and is often flavored with matcha, a powdered green tea. The dough is then shaped into small, round balls and steamed until it becomes soft and chewy. Popuis is often served as a dessert or a snack, and is known for its unique texture and subtle sweetness. It is a popular treat in Japan, particularly during the summer months, and is often enjoyed with a cup of green tea.
