The second time buying as you can see one is already gone. they are delicious and perfect for celebrating Japanese summer even if you don't live in Japan.
the texture is between a gnocchi and a mochi, it stretches a little but snaps back and is a little firm. the sauce is pretty good too
A unique flavor worth trying.
I used to buy mitarashi dango (rice dumplings with sweet soy sauce glaze) because I wanted to eat them occasionally.
It's tastier than I expected! It's a bit of a shame that it arrived melted.
This was a very interesting snack. Sweet and savory. The soy sauce glaze/flavor was not too bad. It caught me off guard for a moment but it's very delicious
