STEP 1/7
Wash the red beans well, filter out the stones, and boil it
Pour out all the water and boil it with more than twice as much water as red beans
STEP 2/7
The red beans are starting to soften
I'll boil it for a bit more
STEP 3/7
Boil it a bit more and add sugar to the red beans to reduce moisture and make them crumble when pressed with your hands
STEP 4/7
I'm going to boil it down again
Since there's sugar in it, stir it well so that it doesn't stick
If you don't want to leave a chunk of red beans, use a hand mixer to grind red beans
STEP 5/7
The time it takes to boil red beans depends on your preference
It's up to you. You can stop here and finish it
STEP 6/7
I'm done with a bit more moisture
STEP 7/7
Let's cool down the red bean paste
You can divide it into parts and keep it in the freezer
If you use soaked red beans, it takes less time to boil
You have to throw away the first water to make red beans taste better
Depending on the degree of moisture you lose, it can be red bean paste for shaved ice or red bean paste for baking, so please adjust the time according to your preference
