Method
- In a bowl, combine mochiko (glutinous rice flour), sugar, and water. Knead until the dough is slightly dry and elastic.
- Divide the dough into three portions: one for white (no coloring), one for red (add natural red food coloring), and one for green (add matcha powder).
- For each color, form small balls of about 15 grams each.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Drop in the dango balls and cook for 5–7 minutes, until they float and are puffed up.
- Drain the dango and immediately cool them in cold water (thermal shock, called 'hikkashi' in Japanese).
- Skewer the dango on bamboo sticks in the order: green, white, red (or as desired).
- Serve.
