Authentic chunky red bean paste for Japanese desserts
Tsubuan (つぶあん) is a traditional Japanese sweet red bean paste made from carefully cooked whole adzuki beans. Known for its chunky texture, this ready-to-use paste preserves the integrity of the bean skins while softening the inner starch for a delicate balance between bite and smoothness.
A staple in wagashi (和菓子) and modern Japanese confections, tsubuan—literally meaning "bean paste with pieces"—is the classic anko filling used in dorayaki, taiyaki, daifuku, manju, and more.
Applications:
-
Traditional wagashi such as mochi, daifuku, and dorayaki
-
Pancake or crepe fillings
-
Spread on toast with butter for an “ogura toast” style snack
-
Layered in parfaits or mixed into ice cream
-
Swirled into bread or buns for baking
