Red bean soup is good for cold food and hot food, but it is also suitable for men and women, young and old, simple health soup Oh!
1 cup of red beans
5 and 1/2 cup of water (or as much as you like)
Moderate amount of rock sugar
How to do it
With water, rinse the beans and pick out the bad ones, add 2 inches of water over the red beans, and let them soak for 8 to 12 hours, and then strain the water from the soaking beans. Add the soaked beans to a pot of water and bring to a boil. Remove the white foam from the surface, then reduce the heat to low and cover until the beans are cooked and soft, then add rock sugar to taste.
Note 1: The difficulty of cooking each type of red bean varies, so in addition to cooking on the stove, you can also use a crockpot or slow cooker to cook red beans. However, Angela once bought a bag of red beans and the only way to soften them was to use the Instant Pot.
Note 2: Leave a crack in the lid to allow steam to escape, so that the red bean soup doesn't spill out of the pot.
Note 3: The best red beans need to be soaked in water, but if you forget to soak the red beans in advance, there is a time-saving method, is to add 1 cup of beans with 4 times the amount of water, bring to a boil and then turn to medium-low heat and continue to cook for 10 minutes, turn off the heat and then cover the lid and let it stand for more than 1 hour, and then filter off the soaking water and replace it with water to cook into the red bean soup
Note 4: The red bean soup is softened by the addition of rock sugar.
