Dango Daikazoku

Konbanwa !

Heard about Dango ? No ! Okey, then I'll tell you !

Dango is sticky Japanese Dumpling which is usually served on a skewer. These are smalls balls made of rice flour and served with green tea. As a big favorite in Japan Dangos have a lot of different tastes like:

  • Anko: normally known as red bean paste. This one is the most popular one in Japan
  • Chadango: Green tea taste
  • Bocchan: This has three colours. One coloured by red beans, the second by eggs and the third by green tea
  • Chichi: Quite sweet, usually eaten as a dessert
  • Hanami: This one has three colours too. The Hanami dango is usually served during the Hanami season(Between January and mid-May)
  • Goma: This one has two different types: Sweet and salty
  • Kinako: A toasted soya flour
  • Kushi: Plain
  • Mitarashi: This one is covered with syrup made from soya sauce, sugar and starch.
  • Teppanyaki: Obvious: Dango with tangy teppanyeki taste.
