To get started with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can have rich-flavored japanese-style red bean rusk using 6 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Rich-Flavored Japanese-Style Red Bean Rusk:
- Prepare 1/2 loaf when using sliced bread, use 2 from an 8-slice loaf A bread of your preference (you can also use sliced bread)
- Take Spread for the rusk:
- Prepare 100 grams Boiled adzuki beans (I used canned adzuki)
- Get 150 ml Heavy cream (I used Meiji Hokkaido Tokachi Fresh 100)
- Prepare 1/2 tsp Salt
- Make ready 1 dash A) Brandy or rum
Add beans, water, and bay leaf. The adzuki bean is a highly desirable bean because of its rich red color. Dried adzuki beans are soaked and then cooked with rice. The adzuki bean is primarily grown in Japan and China, but can also be found in Korea, New Zealand, India, Taiwan, the Philippines and Thailand.
Steps to make Rich-Flavored Japanese-Style Red Bean Rusk:
- [Bread preparation] Cut the bread (baguette) into 5 mm slices. If using sliced loaf, cut into 4 equal squares.
- Dry the bread from Step 1 in the oven for 5-10 min (using a toaster oven is fine too). Cool the bread.
- [Spread for the rusk] Mix ingredients marked with (A) well until fully mixed. Mash the beans lightly as you mix.
- Soak the bread from Step 2 in the rusk spread from Step 3. Then top with red beans. *Don't soak the bread for too long!
- Put Step 4 on a baking pan with baking sheet spread. Bake the bread in an oven preheated to 375°F/190°C for about 30 minutes. *See the hints.
- Bake until crunchy, then cool. It's done when the bread cools.
- I whipped the remaining cream, adding in the remaining boiled red beans to make red bean cream. Spread on the rusk and enjoy.
- Version 1: I made this with sliced bread (with the crust removed).
- Version 2: Use matcha and make Ujikintoki-style rusk.
Dried adzuki beans are soaked and then cooked with rice. The adzuki bean is primarily grown in Japan and China, but can also be found in Korea, New Zealand, India, Taiwan, the Philippines and Thailand. Season with bay leaves, cayenne pepper, thyme, sage, parsley, and Cajun seasoning. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to medium-low. "Going back to the way my Mom cooked red beans, soaking them overnight, saute' onion, celery, garlic in bacon fat, add pickle meat, drain beans put in pot, add water, season with salt & cayenne pepper, add bay leaf and let cook until creamy. She didn't add all that stuff you buy today and the were delicious!" Anpan (あんパン), or sweet red bean bun, is my favorite Japanese bread growing up.
Foods That Make You Happy
A lot of us have been conditioned to think that comfort foods are not good and must be avoided. Often, if your comfort food is made of candy or other junk foods, this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods may be super nourishing and good for you. There are several foods that, when you eat them, could boost your mood. If you feel a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try some of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be really terrific at fighting back depression. Just make sure that you don’t toss out the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, especially the egg yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to elevate your mood. This is because these vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that tell you how to feel). Try eating a few eggs to feel better!
Make some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera are all great for helping to elevate your mood. This is possible because these foods are rich in magnesium which increases your production of serotonin. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that dictates to your brain how you feel at all times. The higher your levels of serotonin, the better you are going to feel. Not only that but nuts, particularly, are a terrific protein food source.
If you wish to fight depression, try eating some cold water fish. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are chock full of DHA and omega-3s. These are two substances that boost the quality and function of the grey matter in your brain. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly boost your mood.
Grains can be great for driving away a terrible mood. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are great at helping you feel happier. These grains fill you up better and that can help you with your moods also. Feeling hungry can really bring you down! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are not hard for your stomach to digest. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps bring up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.
Green tea is truly good for your mood. You knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea is high in a specific amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies show that this particular amino acid can basically induce brain waves. This helps improve your mental acuity while having a relaxing effect on the rest of your body. You probably already knew how easy it is to be healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know that applies to your mood also!
So you see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are bad for you just so to feel better! Test out these hints instead!
