Steamed and Delicious Basic White Dango
This was passed down by my mother.
The amount of the joshinko flour and the boiling water listed is just a guide. The amount will change depending on the season or the flour which are from different companies. Adjust the amount and try to make the dango dough soft as an earlobe. Dango tends to be harder after some time, but it will be soft again as freshly steamed when you reheat in a microwave.

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

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 -

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 -
