Tips:

  • Use glutinous rice flour: This is the key ingredient that gives Chi Chi Dango its chewy texture. If you can't find glutinous rice flour, you can make your own by grinding sweet rice into a fine powder.
  • Soak the rice flour: Soaking the rice flour in water for at least 30 minutes will help to soften it and make it easier to work with. You can also soak the rice flour overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic: The dough should be kneaded for at least 10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more rice flour.
  • Shape the dough into balls: The dough can be shaped into balls by hand or with a cookie scoop. If the dough is too sticky, you can wet your hands with water to prevent it from sticking.
  • Boil the Chi Chi Dango: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the Chi Chi Dango. Boil the Chi Chi Dango for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the top of the pot.
  • Serve the Chi Chi Dango with your favorite toppings: Chi Chi Dango can be served with a variety of toppings, such as sweet red bean paste, black sesame paste, or fresh fruit. You can also drizzle them with honey or condensed milk.

Conclusion:

Chi Chi Dango is a delicious and versatile Japanese dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is easy to make and can be customized with a variety of toppings. Whether you are looking for a sweet snack or a festive dessert, Chi Chi Dango is sure to please.
