About Cookies (Oo Mugi)

These unique cookies, playfully shaped like prawns, are a delightful twist on traditional snacks, yet they're completely vegetarian! Inspired by a desire to create something both nutritious and fun for children, I experimented with barley powder for the first time, adding a wholesome touch to this creative treat.
The charming prawn shapes make these cookies especially appealing to little ones, while the blend of barley, flour, potato, and butter ensures a tender, flavorful bite. Perfect as a healthy snack or a playful addition to any gathering, these cookies are sure to spark curiosity and smiles at every table.

Additional Tips

  • For extra crispiness, allow the shaped cookies to chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before baking; this helps them hold their prawn-like form and develop a better texture.
  • If you’d like to introduce more color and nutrition, sprinkle finely chopped fresh coriander or add a pinch of turmeric powder to the dough, enhancing both flavor and visual appeal for children.
  • To keep the cookies fresh and maintain their crunch, store them in an airtight container with a small packet of food-safe silica gel or a piece of parchment paper to absorb excess moisture.
  • For a vegan version, substitute butter with a mild-flavored vegan butter or coconut oil, and ensure your baking powder is plant-based; this swap keeps the cookies tender while remaining dairy-free.
