Hull the strawberries and divide the anko paste into 8 portions.
Wrap each strawberry with anko paste to make round centers.
Mix the rice flour, sugar, water, and salt in a glass bowl until smooth.
Cover the bowl and microwave for 3 minutes total, stirring every minute.
Dust the counter with starch and place the hot mochi dough on it.
Divide the dough into 8 pieces and flatten each piece in your palm.
Wrap an anko-covered strawberry with mochi dough and seal the bottom tightly.
Brush off excess starch and serve the daifuku the same day.
💡 Tip: Mochi dough is very sticky; dust your hands with starch, but do not leave too much on the surface or it will feel dry in the mouth.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the daifuku on small porcelain plates with plain green tea or strong unsweetened Turkish tea.
