Instructions to make Daifuku (Mochi Dumplings) with Tsubu-an-Like Canned Kidney Beans:
  1. If the canned kidney beans don't contain additives or any other ingredient besides salt, combine the entire contents of the can with the sugar in a pot and bring to a boil. Otherwise, discard the liquid, add 1 tablespoon of water, and boil with the sugar.
  2. When you can see the bottom of the pot, as shown in the photo, add the salt. Depending on the brand, the beans may already be salted, so adjust to taste. I prefer it on the salty side.
  3. Since this the beans will be too large, cut them with kitchen scissors. You may also use a food processor, but it can be cumbersome to clean and the paste may stick to the sides.

  9. Shiratamako can be found as "mochiko" or "glutinous rice flour (imported from Thailand), or "sticky rice flour" in Asian specialty food shops.
