Mung Beans

I made mung bean paste and 500g of it, no less! It's going to be mung beans everything from now on.

It's quite hard work making them because of the constant stirring and got to be very patient to allow the water to dry out and the paste to thicken, but it's well worth the effort and I am going to utilize every bit of the fruit of my labour.

First up! Mung beans mochi! Then mung beans bao and mung beans cupcakes?!?! 

Red Bean Filling

Cooked and sweetened red beans are so versatile! They can be used in cakes, pastries and desserts. I used up a batch already and this is the second batch. My recent favourite is to put a spoon or 2 in my overnight oats, so yummy! Here's a photo of the lovely red beans. ;)

One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. (Psalm 27:4 NIV)
