We are always looking for wheat-free alternatives for Matthew, and I found something at our local health food store that I had never heard of before: Mochi
It is a traditional Japanese food made from short-grain sweet rice that is boiled and then pounded into a dense form. You must use a very strong knife to cut into 1 inch squares (I used a butcher knife). Note: do not bake the Mochi as closely together as I did below or they will merge together as in the second picture below.
Bake at 450 for 8 -10 minutes.
We had a large salad and Mochi for a very filling meal. I've include a close-up shot of the package below that contains a recipe that we haven't tried yet.
Matthew didn't have a negative reaction after eating this food made from rice, so it's something we'll include again from time to time.

I think this is faster to cook and faster to serve. I'm just wondering where I can find that mochi in our place.
