- 2 1/2 ounces rice flour
- 1/4 cup 100 °F hot water
- 3 1/2 cups water for boiling
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 wood skewers (6-in.)
step 1:
Put the rice flour and sugar in a bowl and, little by little, mix in the 1/4 cup hot water (follow the cooking instructions on the bag). Form into 8 (about 1-in) dumpling balls.
step 2:
Pour the 3 1/2 cups of water into a pan. Bring to a boil and add the dumpling balls. When they float back up to the top of the pan, continue boiling them for 1 minute.
step 3:
Remove the dumplings from the pan and place into a bowl of cold water for a few minutes. Remove from the water.
step 4:
Insert a 6-in. wood skewer through 4 balls to form one anko dango. Repeat.
step 5:
Spread the mashed sweetened red bean paste over the dumplings.
comment:
Dango (dumplings) can be served with various toppings (such as sweetened soy sauce, black sesame paste and anko). This recipe using anko is very delicious.
