Cause, I looked up Asia Market, and it says it's located in Houston, TX. If so, thats cool; I live in Magnolia. Anyway, Im going to try one of these recepies(SP?) in the next couple of days. The only problem is that I can't get my paws on some Mochiko. I have Joshinko in the form of Bob's Red Mill, but I just can't seem to get some Mochiko. I have checked both Kroger and H-E-B, but neither has it. Nor does Walmart, and I have not the resources to get it online, as I haven't gotten my job yet (Hey, my birthday was Saturday; you can't blame me.) Any help would be much appreciated.

Joshinko is non-glutinous rice flour. Mirin is a sweetened cooking wine made from rice. Dashi is a seaweed and skipjack tuna stock.Erik, you lucky duck, you live in SoCal, you shouldn't have too tough a time getting your J-cuisine ingredient hook-up! Go to the Mitsuwa in Little Tokyo or to any Korean or Japanese grocery for any of these ingredients. @Erik, yes, make dango, make lots and lots of dango!!

Especially the inside-out malted milk Dango! I really need to try and make this sometime. (As soon as I figure out what all of the ingredients are in english... haha) DO you think that the malted milk dango would be too difficult for someone unexperienced with making Dango? (I am familiar with cooking though) Oh and one last question! >.< I live in Southern California and I was wondering where is a good place to get these ingredients. Ohhh these look so good!

If you have a food processor, perhaps you could try powdering some sushi rice in it. I've read how other people who are hard up for rice flour use this <a href="http://www.bigoven.com/99520-How-To-Make-Rice-Flour-recipe.html" rel="nofollow">method</a>. @Sarah, joshinko is plain ol’ rice flour, as you know.

I don't have it, and I don't have a way to get it (no credit card/debit card/etc.) and no job (I'm only 15, darnit!). I'm not sure if my mom is willing to shell out money for my "weird food", as she calls it. Plus, we don't have any international markets in my town, only the international foods aisle, which, as far as I know, only sells Mochiko, which is all I have as far as rice flour is concerned.Is Joshinko an absolute must, or can it be substituted with something else?

I get mine at the international store in the Indian goods section. It's also available in a Bob's Red Mills brand (available in most grocery stores) and in health food stores. Good luck, I know you'll find it! @Jillian, joshinko is just non-glutinous rice flour, aka, rice flour. I get mine at the international store in the Indian goods section.
