Manufacturing

The ingredients are adzuki beans, sticky rice and water, but also some sugar . First, adzuki beans are boiled in plenty of water. A somewhat thick bean juice is obtained from this. While the beans are cooking, one to two centimeters large balls of sticky rice flour are formed, comparable to a dumpling in a smaller format. The bean juice and the balls are then boiled together with glutinous rice in plenty of water, creating a kind of rice soup.
