About Read bean paste
Red bean paste, also known as "anko," is a popular ingredient in East Asian cuisines, particularly Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. Made from cooked red adzuki beans, sugar, and sometimes a pinch of salt, it can be prepared in different textures, ranging from smooth to chunky. It’s commonly used as a filling for desserts like mochi, buns, and taiyaki, or as a topping for dishes like shaved ice. While red bean paste is rich in dietary fiber and contains essential nutrients like iron, potassium, and antioxidants from the beans themselves, it is often sweetened with significant amounts of sugar, making it high in calories. Unsweetened or lightly sweetened versions are a healthier alternative for those wanting to enjoy its benefits without added sugar. Moderation is key, as excessive consumption could negate the health advantages of the nutrient-rich adzuki beans.
