DANGO (SWEET JAPANESE DUMPLINGS)
Dango, my favorite Anime food... Sailor Moon, Clannad, they all have it. I looked around the net and aggregated all the best bits i had tried into this recipe. A lot of it is similar to http://www.recipezaar.com/120390 , but i think this is better from experience. Dango are great for a party at your house, or bringing to peoples houses as a thoughtful gift, but i find they taste all the sweeter when you devour them yourself just after cooking :D Try to get Mochiko, it's the best! Alternatives for Katakuriko are listed in order of preference after it in the ingredients section. All of the ingredients are available at an Asian food store.

Steps:

- Make small round dumplings (or Dango) with the dough, roughly 1 inch in diameter at the most.
- Steam the dango for 10-15 mins in the steamer on medium or high heat, depending on your steamer.
- When they are done (brownled slightly) take them off and let the cool on a wire rack.
- Mix the sugar, water (Larger mesurement) and soysauce in the small pan over a medium heat.
- Combine the Katakuriko with the small tablespoon and a half of water.
- When the sauce starts to boil, add the mixture in the cup to it, mix and remove from heat.
- Grill the dango slightly and add the sauce to taste.
- YUM! Anime-licous!
