The Azuki beans retain a firm, crunchy consistency even when cooked and have a mildly sweet taste. This makes the small reddish shimmering beans with the typical white line to true all- Talenters. You can cook them just like that as a side dish, use them in your stews, create a fine dish together with fresh Gemvegetables and rice or use them as a base for vegan burgers or a delicious bean puree and even in desserts the Azuki beans do very well. Azuki beans originate from Japan, w obei they were probably originally introduced there from China. The small beans are full of vegetable protein and valuable fiber, which your organism can use well.

Use

Before cooking, you should soak the beans in plenty of cold water for 8 to 12 hours and then rinse them well under running water. By the way, if you add a teaspoon of baking soda (per 500g of azuki beans) to the cooking water, the beans will be cooked especially soft. However, salt the beans (like all legumes) only after cooking, otherwise they will not become tender at all.
