The honey red beans are delicious whether they are eaten directly or made with other fillings. Honey bean buns, honey bean toast, and honey bean puff pastry are all indispensable. Generally, the honey red beans that are bought are somewhat hard, and I like them the most. This kind of mouthful, no matter the texture or the taste, I really made the best one by myself."

Ingredients

500g Red Beans
1000ml Shimizu
250g Crystal Sugar

Honey Red Beans

1. Soak the red beans 24h in advance,

2. Put all the ingredients in a cast iron pot,

3. Boil for about one and a half hours, (the red beans still keep their original shape and melt in the mouth)

4. Strain the excess soup and control the moisture slightly (don’t lose the soup, it’s best with Yuanzi)

5. Add 30g white sugar,

6. Mix well, keep it tightly sealed and refrigerate.

Tips:
The prepared honey red beans can be stored for a long time in the refrigerator. The self-made red beans have a lot of moisture and cannot be directly used for baking. When using it, put it in the oven or the microwave for a little drying. You can use it; if you like the graininess The honey red beans will be cooked for a while. The cast iron pot I use is better to cook thoroughly. For other pots, you can control the time according to your own habits.
