Aduki beans (also known as adzuki, azuki or aduki beans) are an East-Asian crop that have been enthusiastically grown by the Japanese, becoming one of the most popular pulses in Japan. They look a little like kidney beans and the taste is quite similar, though perhaps a little more "chestnutty". In fact, the Japanese and Chinese tend to make lots of desserts out of aduki bean paste, or "red bean paste".
Directions
Cooking time is around half an hour to an hour, depending on how long you soak them for beforehand (soaking for a few hours reduces the cooking time). Simply boil in water until they are soft and done.
