Best 4 Adzuki Bean Tacoburrito Filling Recipes

ADZUKI MOONCAKE

Steps:

• Stir the golden syrup together with 3 tablespoons of peanut oil in a small saucepan over low heat until the mixture becomes very warm, and the syrup is easy to stir, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the cake flour, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir in the golden syrup until a smooth dough forms. Wrap well with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, combine the adzuki beans and water in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the beans are tender, about 1 hour. Drain and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Puree the beans in a blender or food processor.
• Heat 1/4 cup of peanut oil over medium heat in the saucepan the beans were boiled in. Stir in the pureed beans along with the white sugar. Cook and stir until the bean paste clings to the stirring spoon, 10 to 20 minutes. Stir in the wheat starch. Scrape into a mixing bowl. Chill in the refrigerator until cold.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Divide the dough and the filling each into 8 equal portions and roll into balls. Press the dough balls between your palms to form circles large enough to envelop a filling ball. Place a ball of the filling onto the center of each pastry circle, wrap the pastry around the filling, and pinch the edges together. Roll the mooncakes in the all-purpose flour to coat; shake off excess. Place the mooncakes seam-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet and press to flatten slightly.
• Mist lightly with water. Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove the mooncakes from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Brush with the beaten egg yolk, applying more of the yolk to to tops than to the sides. Return to the oven and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Cool completely before serving.

ADZUKI BEAN TACO/BURRITO FILLING

Steps:

• Soak beans overnight in 4 cups water.
• Drain and rinse.
• In a large pot, sautee onions and garlic in oil.
• Add beans and 2-4 cups of water (enough to cover). Bring to a simmer.
• Add bouillon and bay leaf. Cook 1 hour, adding more water if necessary.
• Add taco seasoning and crushed red pepper. Cook an additional 30 minutes or until water is reduced.
• Remove bay leaf. Mash or blend about half the beans (I use an immersion blender) until the texture is similar to taco meat. Taste and stir in more seasonings if desired.

ADZUKI BEAN FUDGE

Steps:

• In a medium sauce pan, add adzuki beans and cover with enough water to fully submerge by at least 1 inch. Soak 2 to 3 hours or overnight.
• Drain and replace with water. Over high-heat, bring to a boil. Reduce to low and allow to simmer for 1.5 hours, or until beans are very soft. As the water boils down, you may need to add more to keep beans s Once cooked, drain and allow to cool slightly.
• Line a 8x8-inch (20x20-cm) cake pan with parchment paper; set aside.
• In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, add warm beans; blend until smooth and no clumps remain. Add peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract and salt. Pulse until well combined.
• In a large mixing bowl add bean mixture, cocoa powder and melted butter; mix until well combined.
• Press into lined cake pan; refrigerate 1 hour before slicing into 2-inch squares.

KALE AND ADZUKI BEANS

Steps:

• Place adzuki beans in a medium saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 30 to 45 minutes, until tender.
• Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat, and saute garlic about 1 minute. Mix in kale and 2 tablespoons water. Season with tamari, cumin, and coriander. Thoroughly blend in adzuki beans. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer about 20 minutes, until kale is tender. Season with salt and pepper.
