Ingredients

  • 300 grams Adzuki beans
  • 800 ml Water
  • 240 grams Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Salt

Method

  • Soak the adzuki beans in water overnight (at least 8 hours).
  • If you prefer to remove the scum that comes out of the adzuki beans, you can bring them to a boil 3 times, pouring out the water and adding fresh water each time.
  • If the scum doesn't bother you, you can just go to step (3).
  • I'm not bothered by it.
  • Put the beans and the water into the pressure cooker.
  • Cover with a lid and heat, when the pressure increases, cook for 20 minutes, then turn off the heat and leave it for 30 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, heat the beans over medium heat, stirring frequently.
  • Alternately, you can let them cook on low heat with less stirring, but be careful not to let it burn.
  • When the liquid is reduced, add the sugar in 2 batches.
  • The amount of liquid will increase.
  • Add soy sauce.
  • Add the salt and taste, adjusting the amount of salt to your liking.
  • The boiled adzuki beans are done at this point.
  • Next, boil it down.
  • Even if there seems to still be a lot of liquid, it will become firm when you chill it, like in the picture.
  • Done!
  • Divide the tsubu-an that you're not using immediately into 200g portions, put in containers and freeze.
