Step 2

Step 3
Remove the bowl, whisk well, cover again with plastic wrap, and heat in the microwave at 600W for 1 minute.

Mix thoroughly with a silicone spatula, ensuring the agar is fully dissolved and the liquid has become transparent.
Step 5
Add 250g of smooth red bean paste in about 4 batches, mixing thoroughly after each addition until no lumps remain.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
⚠️ Agar will not set unless it is brought to a proper boil; always check that the mixture has become transparent after microwave heating.
💡 Since smooth red bean paste (koshi-an) can easily clump if added all at once, the trick to a smooth finish is to add it little by little in stages while mixing.
🔥 Always place the mixture in a water bath to let the residual heat escape before pouring it into the bags. Pouring it while too hot may cause the bags to deform.
