ADZUKI BEANS AND RICE

• Reduce heat, allow to cook slowly with the lid half off the pot. Once rice is half cooked, then you can stir. If you stir too soon, the rice with become mushy! It should be done after 20 minutes or so, depending on the type of rice and stove you have.

AZUKI ICE CREAM (JAPANESE RED BEANS ICE CREAM)

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the azuki beans, 1/3 cup of sugar, lemon juice and water. Bring to a boil, and boil uncovered for 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the beans are very tender. When done, the beans and liquid should amount to 3 cups. If not, add more water to compensate.
• Strain the bean mixture through a sieve - I use a wooden paddle for this, and discard the bean skins. Refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until cold.
• In a saucepan, combine the milk and cream. Bring to a boil over medium heat. While you wait for that to boil, whisk together the egg yolks and 2/3 cup of sugar in a medium bowl. When the cream and milk come to a boil, ladle about 1/4 cup of the hot liquid into the bowl with the egg yolks, and whisk until smooth. Pour the yolk mixture into the pan with the cream, and cook over low heat until thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. This should take about 5 minutes. Do not cook too long, or you will get lumps. Remove from the heat, and stir in the vanilla. Refrigerate until cold.
• Once both of the mixtures are cold, stir them together. Pour into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.

WINTER ADZUKI FRIED RICE HINGED

Steps:

• Note: The original recipe called for 2 tbsp dark sesame oil. I did not use that amount. If I feel I need it as in this recipe I will add drops until I get to the correct taste for me. Feel free to use the 2 tbsp if needed. And to add it where I omitted it and not add it where I put it inches.
• Heat oil in a cast iron skillet.[Note I omitted this and used water].
• Add the onions and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes. Place the squash or pumpkin and rice and beans on top of the onions. Add several drops of water and several drops of soy sauce. Add the sesame oil. Also add the Hing and the pepper.
• Cover and reduce the flame to low. Steam the rice and vegetables until hot. Remove the cover, and place the scallions or leeks on top of the rice.
• Add several more drops of soy sauce. Cover and cook 1 to 2 minutes until the scallions or leeks are tender and bright green. Remove the cover, mix in the sesame seeds, taste and adjust seasonings and place in a serving dish.
