Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix the mochiko, tofu and sugar into a dough.
  2. Divide the dough into 3 equal parts. Mix matcha powder into one part until the colour is even, add a very small amount of red food colouring to another, and leave the third white.
  3. Shape each dough into tablespoon-sized balls.
  4. Boil water in a large pot. Cook one colour of balls at a time: once they float, cook 2-3 minutes more.
  5. Remove the balls from the water, place on paper towel and let cool.
  6. Thread 3 differently coloured dango onto each skewer. Add salted cherry blossoms if you like.
