Soft & Chewy Soba Flour and Tofu Dango with Hijiki Seaweed

cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
I was inspired by another user's recipe for buckwheat and tofu dango (Recipe: 2039400) and modified it with simmered hijiki.
Serve them right when they're done as they'll be chewy and soft. You can also add them to hot pots or to miso soup. Replace the simmered hijiki for kinpira stir-fry for another spin. Recipe by miyuki12
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine the ◎ ingredients into a heatproof bowl and mix together. Add the simmered hijiki seaweed.
- 2
Cover loosely with plastic wrap and microwave at 500 W for 1.5 minutes. Mix well.
- 3
Microwave for 1 more minute. Moisten your hands and roll into balls, and they're done.
- 4
You can also shallow-fry them in vegetable oil (not listed). They'll turn out crisp.

Soft and Chewy Dango With Only Tofu and Flour
My mother used to make this for me. I've always wanted to post this recipe here. Today, this recipe has become a "mother's recipe" for me to teach my daughters.You could also make this with "Dango Flour." In that case, because it's not 100% glutinous rice, reduce the amount of tofu to 200 to 220 g. It's tasty either way. Recipe by Nyakun


Moist and Chewy Mitarashi Dango with Tofu
I created this recipe because I wanted to use up a batch of tofu.You don't need oil when you're browning the dango. You can also use a mochi cake grill to brown the dango balls. If you are not planning to eat them all at once, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. They will still be soft the next day. Recipe by Mayatan

I am now into buckwheat flour.Since there is tofu-mochi balls, I thought of making them with buckwheat flour.Use silken tofu without draining the water. Recipe by John Lee Cooker


Soft and Chewy Dango For Moon Viewing or Mitarashi Dango
I wanted to make moon viewing dango that would stay soft and chewy even if they weren't eaten right away, and came up with this.If you use 60 g of shiratamako + 10 g of joshinko, the dango will have a chewier texture. If you prefer a softer and fluffier texture then I recommend making them with just shiratamako. It's best to use silken tofu. The ratio of flour and tofu is basically 1:1, but make sure to adjust the amount of tofu until the dough is as soft as your earlobes. Recipe by AyakoOOOOO


Healthy Tricolour Dango with Shiratamako and Silken Tofu
I forgot to make dango for Jugoya night. My daughter said 'It is a pity we didn't eat dango that night...That' why I decided to make tri-coloured dango with a lovely rabbit face.Combine the ingredients well.After you cook the dango remove them and place straight in the cold water to remove the sliminess on the surface.

Smooth and Delicious Chewy Dango
Before when I made Mitarashi rice dumplings with just dangoko, something was missing. I wondered how it would turn out by adding shiratamako.For those of you that want this to be super chewy, add more shiratamako. When browning them in a frying pan, they stick to the pan easily, but by adding in rice dumpling flour, they won't stick as much. Recipe by Popotankobu

So Fluffy ~ Chewy White Shiratamako Dango
I used to make shiratama dango with vegetable purees for my kids' snacks. I decided to use tofu when I wanted to make a white version of them. I make this dish often because the color comes out nicely and I also learned that it does not harden very easily.If you have leftover shiratama dango, freeze them to save for nabe (hot pot dishes) or miso soups. They're fluffy and delicious. Recipe by Catherine@fukuoka


Natto & Grated Daikon Radish Soba
A coworker from Hiroshima at my old work place taught me about natto soba. I wanted to eat a version with vegetables, and without the natto sinking to the bottom of the bowl! So, I came up with my own variation. I didn't really like soba before, but I've been buying it more since learning this recipe. Of course, this is what I have for my New Year's Eve soba!To dilute the noodle dipping sauce, be sure to use dashi, not water. The taste of the soba sauce will be completely different. The reason for using half the regular amount of sauce is because the natto will sink as you eat it. Another reason is to keep it from becoming too salty; if you prefer a lot of sauce, then double the amount. This is also delicious with chilled noodles and sauce. Recipe by Nanaha778


Mitarashi Dango with Shiratamako & Silken Tofu

Adzuki and Kinako Soy Powder Dango with Okara
I like user "Hitohitonomoto's" "Gooey One Bite Snack with Okara"and they are easy to make and tasty. I like it so much so I make them everyday. I also like user "Meifan's" "Gooey Sweet Snacks with Okara, Adzuki, and Green Tea"This is tasty too.After trying these recipes, I made my own Japanese-style dessert recipe.With these ingredients you will make about 10 that's 2 cm in diameter and 1 cm thick. The freshly made ones are very fluffy and after they cool in the fridge, they are moist and tasty. You can keep in the freezer. Personally I like to eat frozen ones. Recipe by Aohato


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


Soba Noodles Topped with Kimchi, Mayonnaise, & Tofu!
I wanted to eat something filling! I love chilled kimchi and mayonnaise, so instead of using rice, I decided to use low-glycemic soba noodles!

Altogether it's 312 calories. For serving 1. Recipe by Marrietty


Handmade Soba Noodles
The first time you make soba, it's easiest to use a 7:3 ratio of buckwheat (soba) flour and bread flour.Apparently, it's hard to make soba noodles using supermarket buckwheat flour because it's too dry. Ask your favorite soba restaurant to sell you some flour. (This includes the flour for dusting.) Recipe by kie

Creamy Dango Miso Soup
Miso is a fermented soybean paste, mixed with salt and koji mold.There is a wide variety of Miso pastes in Japan. White, light brown, brown, deep brown, mild, salty, mixed with barley... This is because of the region in which they originated, related to the climate and daily life style of that area.Miso soup is a famous Japanese healthy soup, mixing Miso paste with fish broth and adding tofu or vegetables. At breakfast, lunch, dinner, buffet, restaurants, schools, home... Miso soup is served on many occasions and in many ways!Dango is a sticky rice powder ball which is mixed with water and then kneaded well.When I was a kid, my grandmother always made a special dango miso soup for me at breakfast whenever I stayed overnight. Even after I grew up, or for a short visit, she always made it for me. Dango miso soup is my favorite and reminds me of my grandmother!You can get fish broth packets, miso paste and dango powder in the US through Amazon or Jungle Jim's in Cincinnati, OH, if you are near there.#heirloom


Delicious Mitarashi Dango With Thick Sauce
I wanted to eat Japanese sweets that wasn't too sweet, and came up with this recipe!When boiling the dango, drop in boiling water, and once they float to the surface, they are done.Adding mirin makes the sauce lustrous and gives a delicious shine. If you simmer the sauce for too long during Step 3, it will become salty from the soy sauce, so be careful (But simmer until it's thickened.) Recipe by Mari-

Easy Warm Soba Noodles with Grated Daikon Radish, Nameko Mushrooms and Natto
I tried making this warm soba noodle dish for lunch, using some naturally grown nameko mushrooms that my relatives sent to me, using some rather spicy daikon radish I grew in my garden. I also added split-bean natto.This is best made with handmade noodles and dashi stock made from scratch, but it's an easy recipe so please forgive the shortcuts.Use the brands or types of soba, daikon radish, natto and nameko mushrooms that you prefer. For 1 servings. Recipe by Risa papa


Gnocchi Dessert / Mango Dango
A little, easy recipe :) I was looking at a recipe for dango and found that I could use silken tofu and sweet rice flour. I found a mango tofu dessert in my fridge and decided to try it out instead of regular silken tofu. The result is tender, lightly sweet mango flavoured dango! I didn't have bamboo sticks so I served them as dessert gnocchi ^^


Light and Refreshing Hijiki Seaweed and Tuna Soba Noodle Salad
When I was pregnant with my second daughter I was having trouble with loss of appetite during the summer and came up with this recipe. It's still a family favorite.Please use canned tuna in oil.The oil from the can will prevent the noodles from sticking, even if you don't eat this dish right away.If you don't have canned tuna in oil, add about 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise at Step 3 for a different yet still delicious flavor.
