Mitarashi Dango

Mitarashi dango is a type of traditional Japanese sweet made from rice flour and sugar, and is often served on a skewer. It is not commonly found in restaurants in the USA, as it is a popular street food in Japan. However, some Japanese restaurants may offer mitarashi dango as a dessert option.

The name "miterashidango" roughly translates to "sweet rice dumpling" and it is often flavored with a sweet soy sauce called "mitarashi" in Japanese. Mitarashi is a type of sweet sauce made from soy sauce, sugar, and sake or mirin (a sweet Japanese cooking wine). The sweet sauce is brushed over the dango, giving it a sweet and savory flavor.

If you're interested in trying mitarashi dango, you may be able to find it at Japanese festivals or special events, or at some Japanese restaurants that offer traditional Japanese sweets. Some restaurants may also offer a version of mitarashi dango made with glutinous rice flour, which gives it a chewy texture.
