Ingredients

Dough:

  • 70g 1/2 cup Rice Flour
  • 310g 2 cups Glutinous Rice Flour
  • 45g 3 Tbsp Standard Potato Granules
  • 80g 1/3 cup White Sugar
  • 300ml 1-1/4 cup Boiling Water*

Sauce:

  • 30g 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 60g 1/4 cup White Sugar
  • 30g 2 Tbsp Water
  • 5g 1/2 Tbsp Cornstarch
  • Glutinous Rice Flour for dusting
  • BBQ Sticks

Preparation

  1. In a stainless bowl, combine all ingredients for the dough. Carefully add 1/2 of the water and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula. Then add 1 tbsp. at a time of hot water until the mixture can form a dough. If the water wasn’t fully consumed, discard. If the dough feels a little bit dry, try adding another tablespoon of water.
  2. Knead the dough until it forms a smooth dough.
  3. Divide the dough into 3, and add corresponding a few drop of flavorings to color each one. (Ube flavor, Green Pandan flavor, and plain). If the dough is a bit wet after adding the food coloring, just add some glutinous flour.
  4. Make 1 inch balls, around 15g. Each and roll it in the palm of your hands to create a perfect ball. Roll into some glutinous rice flour to prevent from sticking, before putting it into a tray.
  5. Prepare a pot of boiling water. Drop each ball and cook it for 2 mins. until cooked. Drain and place in a dry plate with some rice flour. Let it cool and skewer the dangos into 3’s.
  6. Just before serving, grill the skewered dango balls in a charcoal griller and just roll it to dry up all sides and create scorched marks.
  7. After grilling, brush the dango with syrup.

* If using a plastic or electric steamer, cover the layer with cloth before covering it with its cover to prevent excess condensation of the item.

** If filled dango is desired, create a bigger dough, then fill it with desired flavor like making a Mochi before steaming or boiling.

*** Fruit syrup or sauce can be replaced in our soy syrup.
