Super Soft and Chewy Mochi Donuts | Homemade and Hand knead Pon de Ring Donut Recipe

[@miracleyang9220]

When looking up recipes I never click on the “fast and easy” or content creator stuff because judging from the dough I know it won’t taste that good. It’s so hard to find actual good replicas of recipes. I had to go through a lot of videos to find this. If you look at the dough for most mochi donut chains it’s really sticky not dry. Most recipes I’ve tried were all a fail in taste and texture. Super dense, dry, and stale tasting. You really know what you’re doing and you even backed up it with the chemistry. I can not wait to try this

[@NovitaListyani]

Thank you for thinking so highly of us, we're glad you appreciate our detailed research. Hope you enjoy the mochi donuts!

[@offbrand_2863]

I just tried it, it really works. I used a smaller egg and had to add 2tbsp of flour, but it came out very light and chewy, with uniform crumb.​@@dvdgalutube

[@linak1909]

Thanks you soooo much! After years of missing Mister Donut's donuts I finally found the recipe that has the right texture! I'm so happy you posted this, you have no idea! The dough is definitely in my top-3 of the "hardest to work with" doughs, but it's so worth it, I'll make it again someday!

[@northbaysilverandgold807]

I like this idea for my donuts , its better than frying individual donut holes

[@Eyelove7777]

this is such a good and detailed video because the other videos don't tell you the mistakes that can happen from over kneading or adding too flour to the temperature of oil or why your dough is sticky this is just amazing 😍😍😍

[@xsparrow5175]

i typed out the instructions for myself, and I might as well send it here. let me know if I'm missing anything. Prepare rising bowl by putting oil into a medium bowl and covering evenly. Also have box of plastic wrap ready to go Mix dry ingredients (tapioca flour, all purpose flour, sugar, salt, and yeast) together Before adding wet ingredients/kneading, make sure to have butter ready Add wet ingredients and mix until combined (not with a whisk) Take out of bowl and knead, stretching forward and folding back, being careful to not press too hard. Keep kneading until you can push a bit on the edges and it stretches back (go watch the video, it’s a little more than what they did) Put butter onto the dough to slow gluten formation, fold a layer of dough on the butter, and knead in the same motion. Knead until it looks thoroughly mixed and shiny. Try the windowpane test where you stretch a small part of the dough and see if you can make it thin enough for light to pass through before it tears. Gather dough, put into prepared rising bowl, flip to cover all sides with oil, and let bulk ferment for about 45 min or until it doubles in size (varies with room temp) While rising, prepare 8 parchment paper squares When done rising, lightly flour work surface and hands, then transfer dough to surface. Fold dough in half over itself, and press down to release any air bubbles. Fold into a log shape for easier division, then cut into 8 pieces. Each should weigh around 60-61g. Shape into balls. Use a little flour if needed Divide a ball into 8 equal parts. Each should weigh about 7-8g. Shape into balls and put onto parchment and arrange into a ring. Make sure they stick to each other, using water if necessary. Repeat for the next 7 donuts. Cover and let proof for ~45 min or until double in size. Make sure to space the donuts apart. 15 min before done proofing, heat oil in large frying pan to 170c/338f. Lower donuts with parchment paper on gently into oil (being sure not to overcrowd). Parchment should easily come off after a moment. Fry each side for 1 min, and put on wire rack to let drain. Make glaze of choice.

Loved the video. It looked sticky enough for me to consider opening the stand mixture I received over 25 years ago 🤣 I made the other version with my nephew per his request twice. It was very sticky too and did not produce as many doughnuts. We might try his when he returns for the holidays. Thank you.

I'm intrigued by your use of tapioca flour instead of glutinous rice flour. Do you think this will bake well in a waffle maker? I'm trying to make mochi waffles that are light and fluffy, yet still chewy. Should i adapt your recipe and add milk to make it a wetter version?

[@anselmoreyes6160]

Seraphim's Heavenly Ring Mochi Donuts This recipe guides you in creating super soft, satisfyingly chewy mochi donuts, crafted in the classic ring shape. These donuts achieve their signature texture through a mix of tapioca flour and wheat flour, and they’re perfect for kneading by hand-no stand mixer needed. Ingredients: Tapioca Flour/Starch: 150g All-Purpose Flour: 100g Sugar: 40g Salt: 1/2 tsp Instant Yeast: 1/2 tsp Whole Milk: 120g Large Egg: 1 (about 50g) Pure Vanilla Extract: 1/4 tsp Butter: 25g (softened) --- Instructions: 1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients In a large mixing bowl, combine 150g of tapioca flour, 100g of all-purpose flour, 40g of sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt, and 1/2 tsp of instant yeast. Stir the ingredients together to ensure even distribution. 2. Combine the Wet Ingredients In a separate bowl, whisk together 120g of whole milk, 1 large egg (approximately 50g), and 1/4 tsp of pure vanilla extract until smooth. 3. Form the Dough Slowly add the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula until the dough starts to come together. The dough will initially feel sticky; keep mixing until it becomes a cohesive mass. 4. Knead by Hand Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Knead by hand for 8-10 minutes. Work the dough until it becomes smooth, soft, and elastic. If it’s too sticky, lightly dust your hands with flour, but avoid adding too much as this can alter the texture. 5. Incorporate the Butter Add 25g of softened butter to the dough. Knead until the butter is fully absorbed, and the dough is smooth, soft, and slightly tacky. This should take an additional 5-7 minutes. 6. Bulk Fermentation Place the dough in a clean, lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size. 7. Pre-Shape and Divide the Dough After the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release any trapped air. Transfer it onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into small portions (about 10-12g each) to prepare for shaping. 8. Shape the Donut Rings Roll each small portion into a ball. Arrange 8 dough balls in a circle on a square of parchment paper, pressing them together slightly to create the classic ring shape. 9. Final Proofing Cover the donut rings with a damp cloth and let them proof for 30 minutes. They should appear slightly puffed and soft, but avoid overproofing. 10. Fry the Donuts In a deep pan, heat oil to 160°C (320°F). Carefully place each donut ring, along with its parchment square, into the hot oil. After a few seconds, remove the parchment with tongs. Fry each side for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pan. 11. Drain and Serve Place the fried donuts on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Allow to cool slightly, and enjoy your donuts plain or with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of glaze. --- Enjoy Seraphim's Heavenly Ring Mochi Donuts!

[@dvdgalutube]

Thanks for the video! I wonder is there a technical reason to shape the donut this way or it’s purely for aesthetic? Thank you and have a good day 😊

[@anouksurmenian4257]

It seems that they couldn’t get the “mochi-mochi” texture to stay uniform when frying a regular donuts shape, they were also inspired by Pão de queijo, pronounced “pon de kejo” in Japanese, I’m not sure at which stage of production, but that’s overall how they ended up with the shape and name 😊

At room temperature that's how long donuts can be stored, 1 day or less. It's always better to eat the donuts fresh. If you have to store for longer, put them into the freezer (not the fridge). Reheat them before serving.

Can i use cassava flour instead of tapioca flour?

[@NovitaListyani]

Cassava flour and tapioca flour are different products with different uses. Both are made from the cassava root, but cassava flour uses the whole root, while tapioca flour only uses the starchy part. So, if you substitute cassava flour for tapioca flour, the donut you made might end up with a different texture and taste from the ones we made here. So we don't really recommend it.

Grams are a measurement of weight and cups are a measurement of volume. Example - 1 cup of tapioca flour will be less grams than 1 cup of vegetable oil. You have to convert each ingredient on its own. Good luck. Edit: I mistyped and corrected. 👍👍

It's better if you let the dough proof overnight in the fridge than putting fried doughnuts in the fridge.

tapioca flour gets hard when it's over cooked (might get stone hard), but if it's well cooked or slight undercooked, it will be Chewy.

Hello! Is it normal that they get tough and not chewy anymore overnight ?

Donuts are best eaten on the day that they're made, but if you have to store them, make sure to do it in an airtight container, otherwise they might end up dry and tough after a while.

[@clol6049]

can i substitute the tapioca flour in this recipe with glutinous rice flour?

[@NovitaListyani]

Although it's technically possible, this recipe is designed for tapioca flour. The texture and taste could be very different if you were to substitute the tapioca for glutinous rice flour, so we don't recommend it.

hiii I really need to know about this right now because I don't have butter is it okay if I use oil thx!

[@NovitaListyani]

Hi, butter and oil are both fats, so it should be alright to substitute the 2, but because of their different characteristics, the dough and the resulting mochi donuts may turn out a little different, they may be a little softer and less flavorful if you use oil instead of butter.

Tapioca starch should be the same thing, tapioca flour and tapioca starch are frequently used interchangeably and made from the starch of the cassava root, meanwhile cassava flour is made from the whole cassava root.

[@juliaphilabounkhoun6802]

Have you tried to freeze the dough? Or do you not recommend it?

[@NovitaListyani]

Yes you can freeze it, but you need to add a little more instant yeast in the recipe to anticipate for the fact that some of the yeast may die, it must also be well-wrapped in a airtight bag (you can easily do that with a Ziploc bag and a straw), and you should store it before the final proof.
