1. 1

   Add the shiratamako and the tofu in a bowl, and knead together.

3. 3

   Form the balls into your preferred size.

4. 4

   Drop the dango balls into boiling water.

   When they start to float, wait for about 2 minutes.

6. 6

   Scoop the balls out, and transfer to a bowl of cold water.

7. 7

   Skewer the balls and grill in a toaster oven or oven (placing them on a sheet of aluminium foil helps as well, if you're using a grill rack).
