Buckwheat & Tofu Dango

i think i found a new topping for this recipe caramelized onions

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

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 came up with this recipe since I wanted to use up rice flour.You may need to adjust the boiling time depending on the amount of boiling water you use, so use a generous amount. For about 20 rice dumplings. Recipe by Yellow submarine

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

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. Recipe by Yukibo-zu

I don't know why but whenever I made dango in my hometown, I make it with tofu.While mixing tofu and shiratamako, the mixture will become moist.The amount of tofu suggested will easily form a dough. Recipe by Komatsuta

I had a sudden craving for dango, so I made some with ingredients I had on hand.Be sure to thoroughly knead the dango dough.It will be easier to skewer the boiled dango if you wet the skewers beforehand. Recipe by NanaStyle

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 ^^

I love Japanese dango dumplings! It's chewy and gooey!!! Hope you like these Japanese traditional sweets!!! Enjoy ☆ *Please be careful if your kids eat this. They could choke on Dango.

I came up with this recipe as a way to use up rice flour. I'm always in the mood for mitarashi dango, so I prepped these easily in the microwave.I was able to make about 15 dumplings the size of a ping-pong ball. These dumplings also taste great grilled after boiling. Recipe by chiroemi

I was wondering if I could make something out of leftover dango flour.Roll the dough thin! Also, Yatsuhashi is best eaten right away. It will harden after 2 or 3 days. Recipe by Yurigu-

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

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

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

I served these for the Tanabata festival (Star festival).I made the sauce less sweet since I prefer it that way, but make it as sweet as you like. For the tofu, you can use silken or firm but do not drain. If there isn't enough liquid in the dough, you could add water, but adding more tofu will result in chewier and softer dango.(Recipe by commeline)

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-

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

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. Recipe by Seireiyukimaru

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

These tri-colour dango dumplings sold at Japanese confectionery shops usually contain Japanese mugwort. Since my second son doesn't like it, I tried making my own tri-colour dango without it.Please adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. Color the dough lightly with just a small amount of food coloring. The color of the dango with darken once boiled. Recipe by Chikayan

One day, I suddenly had a craving for mitarashi dango, so I made it with ingredients I could obtain at a supermarket in Canada.The amount of water depends on the rice flour and glutinous flour, so only add enough water until the dough is as soft as your earlobes. Sometimes you might not need as much water.If you're in Japan, you can use shiratamako instead of mochiko. Recipe by catwoman.

I had leftover shiratama glutinous rice flour. I added tofu, so it made the dango fluffy and delicious.These dumplings are delicious even without grilling! For 5 skewers. Recipe by Yuzuki no mama

My late best friend introduced me to this dessert. I am hooked! The fun thing is, you can shape it to whatever you like. You can use food coloring or paste to create a unique tasty as well.

This is a healthy macrobiotic version of a specialty from Kumamoto Prefecture.The vegetable oil is used to prevent the mochi from hardening. In conventional recipes for these dango, sugar is used to prevent them from becoming stale. For those concerned about calorie intake, please omit the sugar. I use 30 g of dough per dango for large sweet potatoes, and 20 g for small sweet potatoes. Recipe by Ruruko

I love it. It's chewy, sweet, and salty. I didn't use bamboo sticks, and I made them fairly big. Yep. :keyboard

When the days are still hot, but the morning and evenings are cool and crisp, it's just about the right time to view the harvest moon.I made these because I wanted to get that autumn feeling early. I prefer some delicious green tea with these dango, rather than cold barley tea.For the yomogi dango: The dango mixture will be even if you mix the yomogi powder into the water that you'll add when kneading. Please adjust the amount of yomogi, since the color will depend on the powder you use. If you soak the skewers in water beforehand, you can poke the dango much easily and nicely. Please enjoy these dango with different sauces and flavors. They'll look so elegant stacked up for your moon-viewing party. For 24 dango. Recipe by Choco makaron

This is a variation of "Okara Mochi with Rice Bran"using tofu. Incidentally, there is the same amount of vitamin B in 2 teaspoons of rice bran, as there is in 1 bowl of brown rice.You can hardly taste the rice bran after coating the mochi in kinako and light brown sugar (brown cane sugar). Adjust the amount of rice bran to your liking. Adjust the heating time according to your microwave. These mochi are made with katakuriko, so are best eaten straight away. Recipe by miyuki12

I do not normally stock fish in the house. I prefer to buy them fresh. One day I wanted to make datemaki but I only had tofu... and I thought, why not?

I wanted to make a different type of dumpling than my usual one for moon viewing.Add the amount of water little by little, depending on how much you need. If the dough is firm, I recommend adding more water.Be sure to continue stirring while making the syrup. If you don't it may form lumps.If too much time passes after boiling them, they may become stiff, so microwave before serving. Recipe by Koutarochan
