What are Adzuki jelly?
Popular traditional paste made from Adzuki beans. (When we say beans, you might say yuck! but wait) We cook them for hours and they are sweetened with pure cane sugar so they are not the same as canned stuff! They are rich in vegetable protein and consist of no animal fat and that’s good news for those who want to keep their cholesterol count low. It is abundant in high quality protein, and contains a good balance of lanolin acid, lanolin acid, vitamin E, B1, B2, B6, amino acid, calcium, phosphor, potassium, magnesium, and iron. It is also rich in vegetable fiber, which plays a crucial role in maintaining a good digestive system. No wonder people back in the days knew green tea and adzuki treats always worked for their nutritious relaxation.
