First, the practice of red bean paste
1. soak the red beans for one night, drain the water the next day and add water. As long as the water boils, add a glass of water. When the water boils, add a glass of water. Cook this way until the red beans are cooked.
2. Put the boiled and drained red beans into a bowl and grind them. If there is a food conditioner, it is best to mash the red beans directly with a machine.
3. Add cream and sugar to the pot and cook until it melts. I don't think there is enough water and sugar is not easy to melt, so I add 0.5 spoon of red beans to boil. After the sugar is completely melted, add the ground red bean paste and stir-fry until the red bean paste and sugar are evenly mixed and hydrated. Finally, add a spoonful of salt and stir fry.
4. After completion, it can be wrapped with dough, cooled and baked into red bean bread.
Red beans are rich in iron and have the function of enriching blood, which is a good tonic for women during their physiological period. According to Japanese tradition, when a daughter has her first menstrual cramp, her mother will cook a pot of red bean rice, which not only has the meaning of blessing the girl to grow into a woman, but also has the essential function of supplementing menstrual nutrition and preventing iron deficiency anemia.
