Adzuki Beans

Adzuki beans are a versatile ingredient that adds both sweetness and depth to any dish, making them an essential pantry staple. These small, nutrient-packed beans have a naturally sweet, nutty flavor that shines in both sweet and savory recipes. They can be blended into a smooth paste for East Asian desserts like cakes, cookies, brownies, and ice cream, or used to create a delicate sweetness and beautiful pink hue in savory dishes like sushi fillings and rice.

With minimal preparation required—just 1–2 hours of soaking instead of overnight—adzuki beans are a convenient choice for busy cooks looking to elevate their meals with ease.
