Sweetened red bean paste (고운 적앙금), is one of the fundamental components of Japanese & Korean confections. Carefully selected red beans (some say adzuki or azuki) are cooked until soft, their shells strained, while the starch within is further boiled with sugar into this paste texture.
Red bean paste is the default filling ("an", or "anko") for traditional and modern Japanese sweets. You can use red bean paste for numerous sweets application, adding a typical Japanese flavour to your chilled desserts, sponge cake, ice cream, or even spread it between butter toasts for a classic treat.
