Steps:
- Combine the Mochiko powder and sugar in a bowl. Add in hot water little by little and mix with your hands until the dough has the same consistency as an earlobe (a weird description, but the most commonly used in Japan for the perfect dango).
- Divide the dough into thirds. In the first portion, add the Matcha powder. Add water to the Matcha powder if needed to help it combine with the dough. In the second portion, add red food coloring and knead until the color is fully combined. Leave the last portion as is.
- Roll the dough mixture into 6 even balls. Boil the dango for 5 minutes. Once they float to the surface, they will be done.
- Let the dango cool in ice water. Place the dango onto skewers and serve.
DANGO (SWEET JAPANESE DUMPLINGS)
Dango, my favorite Anime food... Sailor Moon, Clannad, they all have it. I looked around the net and aggregated all the best bits i had tried into this recipe. A lot of it is similar to http://www.recipezaar.com/120390 , but i think this is better from experience. Dango are great for a party at your house, or bringing to peoples houses as a thoughtful gift, but i find they taste all the sweeter when you devour them yourself just after cooking :D Try to get Mochiko, it's the best! Alternatives for Katakuriko are listed in order of preference after it in the ingredients section. All of the ingredients are available at an Asian food store.
