Red bean steamed buns

Overview

I learned how to make steamed red bean buns from my mother-in-law. When the weather gets cold, my mother-in-law always steams red bean buns, stews hot cabbage and tofu, and eats them with some pickles. Everyone in the family loves it. The red bean paste made by yourself is pure and tastes much better than the red bean paste you buy. It has the effects of reducing swelling, protecting the heart, and replenishing blood. Brown sugar warms the body. I have continued this tradition and cook and eat it often.

Steps

  1. To make the dough, you can refer to my method of steaming steamed buns. This is the dough that has risen. Put a thumb-sized amount of baking soda in the dough and knead it evenly.

  2. Soak red adzuki beans in twice as much water for one hour, then put them into an iron pot and cook them. First, turn on high heat, then cook them over medium heat. Stir once in the middle. If you find that there is less water, add more water. If they are cooked and there is too much water, you can pour out the water and drink it. Then crush it with a spoon. Add brown sugar and mix well to form bean paste.
