Adzuki Beans

Meet Adzuki Bean, a small red mung bean, almost as old as Japan, and widely harvest throughout Asia, valued for its small size but large health benefits.  One cup of these beans yield 17.3 grams of protein and 6.8 grams of fiber.  Many beans have a blander taste, but the tasty Azuki actually has a sweet flavor, which is why it is often used to make a sweet paste for Asian recipes.  It is also sometimes ground into a flour-like consistency and baked into dessert recipes or made into a healthy milk substitute.

If you are cooking Kosher Asian dishes and the recipe calls for the addition of red bean paste, the paste made of these beans is what is being referred to.  

While Adzuki Beans grow everywhere Asian, including China, Korea, New Zealand, India, Taiwan, Japan and the Philippines, we’ve sourced our fine imported beans from Thailand due to their quality.  Now your international pantry supplies can be delivered right to your doorstep, with the Kosher exotic foods selection from Oh!
