  6. Add the salt and grind it in. The zunda-an (edamame bean paste) is done.
  7. Cut the mochi cakes in half and put in a heatproof dish. Add enough water to cover the mochi, and microwave until softened.
  8. Drain the mochi well, and serve with the zunda-an.
  9. Store-bought zunda-an has water to make it more creamy. To make yours like the kind you'd find at the store, add a little water that's been boiled and cooled.
