Boiled azuki(red beans) recipe with Donabe(Japanese traditional pots)

 

You can start boiling azuki( red beans) immediately after washing them. If you use donabe(pots made of a special clay), you can turn the heat off and let it stand. It saves time using fire and therefore eco-friendly and also reduces the risk of azuki(red beans)’s skin ripped in comparison with boiling them from start to finish.

 

< Ingredients >    Serves: 800g boiled azuki(red bean pastes)

Azuki( red beans)   300g  ( 360ml)
Water                    6cup ( 1200ml)

< Instruction >

  1. 1 Rinse azuki( red beans) and put them in the pot. Add 6 cup water and turn the heat on without the lid.
  2. 2 When boiling, turn the heat down and leave it for 5 min. After that turn the heat off and cover with lid. Let it stand for 30 min.
  3. 3 After leaving them for 30 min, heat doesn’t go through them completely and their skin remains. Turn the heat on again and simmer them for 10~20 min.
