Homemade red bean paste

Overview

Red beans, also known as adzuki beans, have high medicinal and good health effects. I have always loved bean paste, and it is used in many delicious foods, such as moon cakes, yuanxiao, rice dumplings, steamed buns, etc. However, the bean paste fillings sold in supermarkets are usually overly sweet and have an impure taste. Not only can you control the sweetness of what you make yourself, but it also has a strong bean flavor, so you can eat it with confidence. The red bean paste I made this time is for making mooncakes. If you are interested, you can try it!
