Organic Adzuki Beans – High Protein Pantry Staple | SpiceBloom NZ
Organic Adzuki Beans
Small ruby-red beans with a mild, nutty flavour for soups, curries, grain bowls and traditional East Asian desserts.
SpiceBloom Organic Adzuki Beans are whole dried beans with a distinctive red colour and a pleasantly mild flavour. Once cooked, they become tender while retaining enough structure for salads, rice bowls, soups and slow-simmered dishes.
Their versatile flavour works in both savoury and sweet recipes. Cook them with vegetables, tomatoes and spices, or prepare them with sugar according to your chosen recipe for sweet bean fillings and desserts.
One Bean, Plenty of Possibilities
Adzuki beans suit richly seasoned savoury dishes as well as traditional sweet preparations.
Soups, Stews and Curries
Simmer with tomato, onion, vegetables, garlic and spices for hearty soups, casseroles and bean curries.
Salads and Rice Bowls
Cool the cooked beans and combine with rice, quinoa, vegetables, herbs and a savoury dressing.
Sweet Bean Recipes
Cook until soft and prepare according to your recipe for fillings used in buns, pancakes, mochi and puddings.
