Generally speaking, red bean paste refers to red bean paste, which is generally used as a dessert filling, such as red bean paste moon cakes, red bean paste buns, red bean paste dumplings, red bean paste cool cakes and so on.
Most of the time, for convenience, we go to the supermarket to buy bean paste. In fact, bean paste can be made at home, which is simple and affordable. Its ingredients are mainly red bean paste and sugar. Red bean paste has the function of strengthening the spleen and benefiting the stomach, which has won many people's love.
So, how is the bean paste made at home? Today, I will share with you the detailed practices and steps. I don't need any profound skills. I just need to look at them. They are more delicious than those bought outside, hygienic, affordable and reassuring.
2. Home-made method of red bean paste
Ingredients: red beans (soaked one night in advance)
Step 1: Soak the red beans, wash them with clear water, and then drain them. Soaked red beans absorb water and are chubby, so they are easy to cook.
Put the red beans into the pot, add appropriate amount of water, then add crystal sugar or white sugar suitable for your own taste to increase the sweetness of the bean paste, bring to a boil with high fire, and then turn to low heat for 1 hour, and turn off the heat when the red beans are soft and rotten.
Of course, in order to save time and gas, we can put red beans in a pressure cooker, add water and rock sugar or white sugar, and press for 30 minutes.
Let the boiled red beans cool slightly, then put the red beans into high-speed blender, add appropriate amount of water, and beat for a long time, the more delicate the taste, the better.
As high-speed blender plays very delicately, we don't need to sift.
Step 2: Start making bean paste, preferably in a non-stick pan. We pour the mashed bean paste into the non-stick pan.
First, heat the bean paste with a big fire, then turn to a small fire and stir fry slowly. The purpose of this step is to slowly boil the water in the bean paste.
In the process of boiling, we should diligently turn it with a spoon to prevent the bean paste from sinking to the bottom and pasting the pot. Boil until the water in the red bean paste becomes less and it becomes more and more difficult to stir it with a spoon. We add some vegetable oil.
Continue to stir fry on low heat until the bean paste is thick.
Take it out and let it cool.
After cooling, make it into your favorite shape, taste sweet, not worse than buying it at all, clean and hygienic and save money.
To sum up:
1. The bean paste stuffing is not made of red sugar, but made of red beans and sugar. Red beans should be soaked one night in advance, and if they are not soaked, the boiling time will be longer.
2. When making red bean paste, keep stirring with a spoon to prevent the red bean paste from sinking into the pot. Use a small fire here and be patient.
