MOCHI, STICKS US TOGETHER

Every year, our family gathers to make Mochi: soft, sweet rice cakes, around New Years. Our Japanese-American family has continued passing on this tradition, to the five generations that have lived in America. See our family at work, making mochi, and find out how and why, it sticks us together.
