Azuki Kanten Jelly ‘Mizu-Yōkan’

Place Water and Kanten Powder in a saucepan. Whisk well and bring it to the boil. Keep boiling for 1 to 2 minutes.

Add Sweet Azuki (Red Bean) Paste and Salt, and mix well to dissolve the paste. (Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of Caster Sugar if you want it sweeter.) Remove from the heat to let it cool slightly, but do not leave too long because Kanten jelly sets at room temperature.

Pour the mixture into a container, cups or moulds. When cool enough, place in the fridge until set completely.
