Ikinari Dango is a local dish in Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu! This dish is originally made from cake flour but we blend in the sticky rice flour since many people nowadays tend to like soft mochi. If you think your sweet potato is not sweet enough, mix some sugar into the dough. You can store the dango in the freezer but make sure to wrap each piece with plastic wrap. When you thaw, microwave them until the wrappers soften. (^^) 熊本県の郷土料理でいきなり団子です！本来薄力粉のみで作りますが最近は柔らかい餅が好まれるのでもち粉をブレンドしました。さつまいもが甘くない場合は生地にお砂糖を入れてください。団子は一つづつラップに包んで冷凍できます。食べる時は皮が柔らかくなるまでレンジで温めて下さいね。(*^^*)
I am about to try the recipe but look forward to trying it in Kumamoto when it is safe to travel again! Have you tried age yuba manju in Nikko? Its red bean paste wrapped in tofu skin and deep fried in batter. Also love your pfp :D
I'm so in love with this channel , I have learned so many wonderful recipes from you and I can't tell you how happy your recipes have made my family too! One day I'm going to be an amazing chef like you!
It always amazes me how she used chopsticks for mixing and things instead of how I'm used to seeing it, I'd never be able to be as precise as her with a pair of them.
I have made several of your recipes for friends and myself, and they are always amazing! I love mochi, sweet potato, and anko, so this looks like the perfect thing! I can't wait to try ^_^
I love this recipe Chef! Just an observation...that wax paper in the video looks more like parchement paper for baking. The wax paper in the USA looks alot different and it is transparent and waxy. Parchment paper is not that sticky and helps baked goods slide off a baking pan and not stick to it.
Hello Chef and Francis! I love your videos, and I've been following the channel for a long time now. (I'm not sure if I commented at any time - I'm a bit comment-shy) This dish looks particularly delicious, and I'd love to try making it some time. I was reminded of a similar dish in a book I recently read - Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. In the book, the characters liked something that was called a "sugar-fried taro" or something. Seeing this video reminded me of that dish. I was wondering if you'll do a video on something related to the taro. I heard that taro is a Chinese ingredient (I could be wrong) but I heard that Japanese cuisine sometimes uses something similar. In any case, love your videos, and I'll definitely continue to watch!
feedingthedragon.com/blog/2009/7/22/fried-taro-dessert-from-snow-flower-and-the-secret-fan.html Someone posted exactly the recipe you are looking for ^_^
Thank you for all your nice recipes (^_^)/. I'm Egyptian and I love Japan and Japanese culture. I tried a lot of the recipes and loved them. Some ingredients are not available and some I cannot use for religious reasons, but all recipes work perfectly with alternative ingredients . 本当にいろいろありがとうございます。 いろんなレシピを教えいただいてありがとうございました ：） 私は自分で日本語を勉強しました。 アハマド より
Please note this uses Japanese sweet potatoes, which are different from the usual kind you see in the US. I believe you can use the orange kind of sweet potato, but only if you peel it.
There are at least 4 different types of Sweet potatoes of different colors. They are found all over the Caribbean, Africa and South America. I guess the u.s. market limits the variety they import since many people here don't know of the options. Yet you can still find them in international grocery stores here.
How can you make this dish quickly when a guest comes over? It take's 30 minutes to rest and 25 minutes to cook, as well as 30 minutes preparation time for the experienced cook. And you can't leave your guests alone for an hour and a half. By the time you are done, the guest is long gone @_@
Hi you guys... The cooking with the dog,I like that name.:))) Thank you so much for the video,it makes me feel cook n bake. I am a home chef. Hihi just want to ask u about making a new video to show us about a cake,a popular cake in Japan . I know the name is Japanese cotton cheesecake. It's that right??? Would u like to make it to show us,I would love to know the recipe from you. Thanks !
Many cultures are use to cooking everything from scratch, like in the Caribbean, South America, Africa, and Asia of course. 2-3hrs to complete a meal is normal. So anything that's takes simply one hour is considered a quick meal.

ありがとうございますCooking with Dog! 私はだいすきですよ！貴方のRUclipsビデオは一番です！日本の食べ物はとても面白いですよ！ありがとう、ありがとう、ありがとうございました！！！

I love sweet potatoe, so i'm definately going to try this out. Thanks for making this video, looks delicious:)
Talking about mochi, Francis, is there any possibility that you make a video about ozoni? I am always curious about how it is made! Arigatou :D
Can I substitute sticky rice flour with normal rice flour?
Thank you!
Rhea Rosanti I searched ozoni on RUclips and Cooking with dog came up first with an ozoni soup video from 2009. :3
Here is our Ozoni video. :) ruclips.net/video/7TLoD1IzGlU/видео.html Rhea Rosanti
Even though I never try these recipes, I love watching all the videos :)
I had this yesterday (actually in Kumamoto) it was absolutely delicious!
I am about to try the recipe but look forward to trying it in Kumamoto when it is safe to travel again! Have you tried age yuba manju in Nikko? Its red bean paste wrapped in tofu skin and deep fried in batter. Also love your pfp :D
I love sweet potato! I had never thought of combining it with anko, so I've got to try this.
Very fashionable that Francis . Love your recipe and techniques!

Another awesome video I love that cute little dog
I'm so in love with this channel , I have learned so many wonderful recipes from you and I can't tell you how happy your recipes have made my family too! One day I'm going to be an amazing chef like you!
Please tell Chef that her new hair cut is absolutely adorable! Makes her look very young and vibrant!
It always amazes me how she used chopsticks for mixing and things instead of how I'm used to seeing it, I'd never be able to be as precise as her with a pair of them.
I will definately try this recipe. It mixes both Anko and Sweet potatoe. This can only be the best combination of sweets!
The preview for the next video looks incredibly yummy.
It's called Sauce Katsudon! :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katsudon#Variations yoroshiku
I have made several of your recipes for friends and myself, and they are always amazing! I love mochi, sweet potato, and anko, so this looks like the perfect thing! I can't wait to try ^_^
The Chef (and also the dog) is so cuuuute :D I love this channel ^^

Chef is too cute!!!!

I wish I could cook like this.
The dog looks like he's sitting on a dango too.
おはようございます、奥さま。
ガラス容器の底を使うというのは、
きっと奥さまのアイデアですね。
「工夫とひと手間」を実践しておられ
頭が下がります。
底の形状により様々な下ごしらえに応用できそうです。
柔らかな餅がお好みの場合は半分以上もち粉を使っても美味しくできます。(*^^*) いつもコメントありがとうございます！ stonetoroll

Chef is so cute! She's so pleasant and works so hard.
I wonder who comes up with the recipes for the show? Who picks them I mean.
I'm sure they have a small team of people that plans and brainstorms ahead :)
It looks so delicious !!!! I want some so badly 😭
Chef's outfit and deftness remind me of the song Grandma's Hands by Bill Withers. They appear very strong.
Been too long since I heard "ballon wheesk" and "jiannnnn" from Francis :D
Delicious!!!!!
Hello Francis.....❤🌷
Funny, I'm in Kumamoto now and have never seen these ;_; I'll definitely consider making them!
美味しそう~😋

I love this recipe Chef! Just an observation...that wax paper in the video looks more like parchement paper for baking. The wax paper in the USA looks alot different and it is transparent and waxy. Parchment paper is not that sticky and helps baked goods slide off a baking pan and not stick to it.

Hmmm yummyy
Can you make more tofu recipes like ganmodoki? Thank you
Yum!
Can I hug you, Chef?
Could you make a tutorial on how to make Kuri Manju or Anpan?
I love that apron. It's one of those ones that old ladies wore over their kimonos, right? Great choice!
Wow! How did you know that?! Yes. The apron is called Kappogi. :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kappogi Het Nether
Will you come out with another bento box video?

Les patates douce au Japon ne sont pas les mêmes en Europe cette recette n'est pas simple à faire ici mais bravo on aime 😊
I LIKE BUTTON!
I love the background music in this episode! Does anyone know what it could be?
Hi you guys... The cooking with the dog,I like that name.:)))

Would u like to make it to show us,I would love to know the recipe from you. Thanks !
Dear Chef,
Where might I find a steaming tray like the one you used to steam the dango? Thank you!
I never knew there were instances where it's acceptable to do nigiribashi xD
That dog wants to eat so much
These look so good, but I don't know where to get the ingredients :(
yum yum yum yum =)
looks like I need to invest into a steamer.
Jajajan! Haha.. Love it!
Hi, I would like to know why the dough has to be rest for 30 minutes? Thank you
2:35 Then, cover the potato with the "wrapper"?
Why is something that takes an hour something you can "throw together quickly"?
Many cultures are use to cooking everything from scratch, like in the Caribbean, South America, Africa, and Asia of course. 2-3hrs to complete a meal is normal. So anything that's takes simply one hour is considered a quick meal.
How much time do you approximately need to knead for?
You should knead the dough for a total of 3 to 4 minutes to give it a smooth texture. :) Chum-Chum Scarecrows
looks like francis likes dango
nom nom
Dango Unchained
What kind of sweet potatos is that? The ones we have here are yams
Oishii sou^^ tabetaiiiii
Please nake Mimi udon in the future!
Do you need to cook the sweet potato before you put it into the mochi? It seemed like you put it in raw.
I believe it's raw. The steam cooks it.
question: I have a steamer attachment to my rice cooker, would this also work?
If your rice cooker can produce lots of steam (like shown in the video) for a total of 25 minutes, you can probably use it. :) Emaline L.
Why does this remind me of Keroro Gunsou?
