Iwakuni, Japan. (January 2, 2025): In the hopes of bringing good fortune, U.S. forces joined Japanese troops in a cultural practice that dates back centuries. In this photo by Lance Corporal David Getz, Marine Corps Colonel Richard Rusnok, center, and Japanese Rear Admiral Ichiro Ishikawa, right, hammer rice during a traditional Mochitsuki mochi pounding, an ancient New Year’s tradition.
Mochitsuki , or mochi, is steamed rice that is mashed and pounded with wooden mallets in a traditional mortar. The word mochi means “to have” and the dish is considered an auspicious food that brings good health, long life, and good fortune. The work involves two people, one pounding and the other turning and wetting the mochi. Teamwork is key as they must keep a steady rhythm or they may accidentally injure each other with these heavy mallets.
