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

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.
