COFFEE-AZUKI GELATIN
A sweet layer of an topped with a layer of creamy coffee jello. An is a common ingredient in Japanese confections. No doubt bean paste in dessert sounds weird to those who have never tried it, but it actually tastes very good and has some nice health benefits, adding protein and fiber to help counter all the fat and sugar usually found in desserts. Cooking time is the chilling time.

Steps:
- In a bowl, stir together gelatin and coffee until gelatin dissolves.
- Add extract (if using), milk and an, and stir.
- Pour into a 9x13-inch pan or glass coffee cups.
- Refrigerate until firm (overnight).
- **Making an with canned aduki beans - It adds a couple of hours to the prep time to make the an yourself, but it can be difficult to find if you don't have a good Asian market nearby or you may want to make it yourself so that you can control the sweetness (I make it myself for both reasons). Drain and rinse 2 (15 oz) cans aduki beans (I found them at the whole grocer; kidney beans work in a pinch, but they won't be exactly the same). Bring to a boil with enough water to cover by 1-inch and 1-2 cups of your favorite sweetener (I use 1 1/4 cups raw sugar). Reduce heat and simmer until the beans are soft (just starting to fall apart) and there is little water left (add more water if it cooks off before the beans are done - about 90 minutes). At this point you have Tsubu-an (red beans simmered with sugar).
- For tsubushi-an (red beans simmered with sugar and mashed): roughly process the beans in a food processor (or mash with a potato masher), adding water if needed to bring the beans to a paste consistency. I add half of the an to the dessert at this point, and press the rest.
- For koshi-an (red beans simmered with sugar and mashed, with husks removed): Strain tsubushi-an through a sieve to remove the bean husks and make the paste smoother.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality coffee: The better the coffee, the better the gelatin will taste. Use a dark roast coffee for a more intense flavor.
- Bloom the coffee: Blooming the coffee means pouring hot water over the ground coffee and letting it steep for a few minutes. This helps to release the coffee's flavor and aroma.
- Use good quality gelatin: Gelatin is a key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure you use a good quality product. Look for gelatin that is clear and free of impurities.
- Chill the gelatin thoroughly: The gelatin needs to be chilled thoroughly before you can serve it. This will help it to set properly and have a firm texture.
- Garnish with fresh fruit or whipped cream: Fresh fruit or whipped cream are both delicious garnishes for coffee gelatin. They add a touch of sweetness and flavor.
Conclusion:
Coffee gelatin is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a delicious coffee gelatin that will impress your friends and family.
