  • Chill the dough before shaping: This will help the dough to hold its shape and prevent it from becoming sticky.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Be patient when cooking the dango: It takes time for the dango to cook through. Don't rush the process, or the dango will be undercooked.
