Red Bean Soup (Oshiruko)
Description
Red Bean Soup (Oshiruko) features anko paste, water, and cane sugar cooked together to a gentle simmer, allowing the flavors to meld smoothly and sweetness to balance the beans. The toasted mochi, puffed and golden on the outside, adds a chewy texture that contrasts with the silky soup. Toasting the mochi either in a toaster oven or broiler yields a golden exterior, while microwaving with a moist surface produces a puffy, balloon-like texture. Served warm, it provides soothing sweetness and a tender bite from the mochi. This simple recipe highlights basic ingredients and easy preparation to create a classic sweet red bean dessert soup.
Ingredients
- 280 grams anko (about 1 cup)
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons cane sugar to taste, evaporated
- 2 mochi
Instructions
- To make the red bean soup, add the anko, water, and sugar to a pot and bring the mixture to a boil while stirring. Turn down the heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
- Toast the mochi in a toaster oven or broiler until it's puffy and golden brown. If you are heating the mochi in a microwave oven, get the surface of the mochi wet, and then set it on a piece of parchment paper and microwave until the mochi puffs up like a balloon.
- Serve the Oshiruko in a bowl topped with a piece of toasted mochi.
