Mitarashi-dango is famous for Japanese confectionery. It is generally skewered rice dumplings, broiled and flavored with sugar and soy sauce. However, in Takayama, we flavor it with only say sauce and call it MI-”DA”-RA-SHI-dango. Speaking of eating tour in Takayama, we come up with this Midarashi-dango.
The dango of one shop is broiled savory, others till a little brown. The sauce is also different depends on each shop. We would like to introduce our favorite shop named Jinya Dango in front of Takayama Jinya.
Jinya-mae morning market is beside the shop.
The shop has some staffs, but all of them broil with the same technique, so the taste is not changeble.
Now, let’s try a skewer of dango! It had a good salty and savory taste and brought out the full rice flavor.
Whenever you visit here, the taste will be the same.
This dango is chewy but not hard, regardless of broiling savorily. We guess not only local people but also guests will like it.
We recommend you visiting Jinya-mae morning market with this dango.
