Adzuki beans are relatively high in protein and fibre. Although beans are quite high in protein, they are not complete on their own, so should be eaten with rice, cereals or other vegetables. How to prepare Adzuki beans? Unlike other dried beans, Adzuki beans do not need to be soaked before cooking. Even without soaking, they are usually ready in about 60 minutes! If you are baking in a pressure cooker, it will take about 30 minutes. When cooking adzuki beans, you can choose their final texture and enhance their flavour by stewing them with seasonings such as onion, crushed garlic cloves, bay leaves or black peppercorns.
