Mitarashi (Sweet Soy Sauce) Syrup for Dango Dumplings
I made this for the birthday party of a friend who loves sweets.
I wanted to make the very best for my friend. This recipe is the result of a few hours of carefully adjusting and making notes about the flavoring ingredients!
Be sure to add the katakuriko dissolved in water a little at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency.
The leftover syrup is good for potato mochi too!
If you use only shiratamako, these will stick to the pan when you brown them, but if you add dumpling flour as well, they won't stick. Recipe by Popotankobu

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine soy sauce, mirin, ◎ water, and sugar in a pot over low heat, and bring to a boil.
- 2
Once large bubbles rise to the surface, turn off the heat and gradually introduce the katakuriko slurry. Mix well as you add it in, and don't dump it all at once.
- 3
When you first add the katakuriko dissolved in water, the mixture will be cloudy, so cook and stir over low heat until it becomes clear.

When the syrup is clear, it's done

With 2 tablespoons of katakuriko. It's a bit thick, but still smooth.
- 6

On the dumpling flour package it says to brown the balls on a gas stove, but what if you have an induction stovetop?! See Step 10.
- 10
Put the balls in a nonstick pan without oil, and fry over low heat, rolling them around, until they are brown, as in the photos in 9 & 10.
- 11
Cool before packing in styrofoam containers, which tend to melt easily from heat.
- 12
Store leftover syrup in the refrigerator or freezer. You can use the syrup for other sauces, or for simmered dishes. The styrofoam container in the photo is from Germany.

Make Mitarashi Dango Dumplings with Mashed Leftover Rice Make Mitarashi Dango Dumplings with Mashed Leftover Rice
I saw a comedian making dango on TV and got some hints from that and made this recipe.I thought that maybe my 2-year-old and 10-month-old year old daughter could help me making this while having fun so I put the rice in a plastic bag. This made it much easier to make the dango than grinding the rice in a mortar. By putting the rice in a plastic bag, I was able to play with my child while making the dango. My daughter helped me a little bit too.Mash the rice until they lose shape. You can also enjoy this dango coated in kinako powder or with azuki bean paste instead of mitarashi sauce.

Easy and Lovely Chewy Tender Heart-Shaped Dango (Dumplings) Easy and Lovely Chewy Tender Heart-Shaped Dango (Dumplings)
I made a prettier version of a recipe I uploaded previously,If you use 50 g of shiratamako (glutinous rice flour with a little katakuriko potato starch flour added) and 10 g of joshinko (regular rice flour) instead of 60 g of shiratamako, the dough will be chewier. If you prefer a tender texture, make the dough with shiratamako only.I recommend using silken tofu. The basic ratio of rice flour to tofu is 1:1, but adjust the amounts so that the dough will have the texture and feel of your earlobe. Recipe by AyakoOOOOO -
Tianmianjiang-style Sweet Miso Sauce Tianmianjiang-style Sweet Miso Sauce
This was a recipe taught to me at the place I worked more than 10 years ago.This recipe works better if you use miso without dashi added. You have to constantly stir the sauce, so I think it is a good idea to make it when you have some spare time. The miso will splatter of the pot and stain your clothes, so I suggest wearing an apron!. Add more sesame oil if you prefer. Recipe by kenken mama -
