The food that I have chosen is butter mochi. My whole family loves my mom's butter mochi so she makes it for special occasions such as christmas, birthdays, and family gatherings. If you want some of it you have to take fast because at parties the buttter mochi is gone in minutes. I remember the first time that my mom made the butter mochi for my family, everyone fought over the "corners" because of the crunchy texture. I am planning to interview my mom, Carrie Tachino, about this dish on Saturday, August 29. Some of the questions that I will be asking are:
- What is your opinion on the dish?
- Do you have any special memories related to the dessert?
- Is this dessert part of a family tradition? If so, when did it become a tradition?
- When did you first hear about/prepare this dish?
- Could you tell me a story or a personal experience that you've had with this dish?
