A viral video features a large ball-shaped treat made with rice flour and sesame

Recently, a food vlogger shared a video on Instagram offering foodies a peek into the preparation process of an enormous ball-shaped delicacy at the Mara Daigaku restaurant in Tokyo. The video shows a person cooking a big ball of dough in a pan filled with a generous amount of oil. With a spatula and a sieve, he continues stirring the dough ball until it takes an enormous shape of a rice ball. Once done, he transfers it into a basket and repeats the process with another dough. Next, the cook serves the riceballs to a customer. When the fluffy riceball was pressed, it broke open from the centre, revealing the hollowed middle part.

The caption read, "A Giant Sesame Dango-The Largest in Japan! The dough, which started out the size of a fist, grew to twice the size of a face! At one point during cooking, a hole appeared, and the air whooshed out like a balloon deflating. I thought it was a failure, but as they kept rotating it, the hole disappeared, and it kept getting bigger! It was amazing to watch. The inside was completely hollow, with a chewy glutinous rice cake stuck to the bottom."
