Microwave Chi Chi Dango Recipes

MICROWAVE CHI CHI DANGO

Steps:

• Generously grease a 9x13-inch microwave-safe pan with cooking spray.
• Combine mochiko and sugar in a bowl. Add water, coconut milk, and vanilla; stir everything together until smooth. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Microwave on high for 18 minutes until cake is set. If the top center of the cake is still sticky, microwave in increments of 2 minutes until no longer sticky.
• Remove the pan from the microwave and set on a cooling rack. Cool for about 90 minutes.
• Cut cake into 16 pieces and roll in potato starch or kinako.

CHI CHI DANGO MOCHI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan. Whisk together the rice flour, sugar and baking powder; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the water, vanilla, coconut milk and red food coloring. Blend in the rice flour mixture. Pour into the prepared pan.
• Cover the pan with foil and bake for 1 hour. Allow to cool completely.
• Turn the pan of mochi out onto a clean surface that has been dusted with potato starch. Cut into bite size pieces using a plastic knife. The mochi does not stick as much to plastic knives.

MICROWAVE MOCHI

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the mochiko, 1 cup of sugar, and water until well blended. Mix in the 2 drops of vinegar to soften. Pour into a microwave-safe dish, and loosely cover with plastic. Microwave for 8 to 10 minutes on HIGH. Remove, and let cool until cool enough to handle.
• In a small bowl, combine the potato starch, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt. Turn the mochi out onto the plastic, and cut into pieces using a plastic or wooden knife. Metal knives tend to stick too much. Roll the pieces in the potato starch mixture.
