Description
Adzuki Beans (Vigna angularis) are a prized Asian heirloom legume famous for their small, ruby-red seeds with a distinctly sweet, nutty flavor. A staple in Japanese, Chinese, and East Asian cuisine, they are most famously simmered into sweet red bean paste (anko), added to hearty soups, or sprouted as fresh, nutrient-dense microgreens. Compact, bush-type plants produce high yields of slender pods that dry evenly for easy harvesting.
