Adzuki Bean Stew Recipe


Adzuki Bean Stew Recipe
This is a nice combination of beans and veggies that I got from my sister, Joan. If you add the hijiki, it is a really interesting texture, flavour and colour. This is Protein Prana from the Sivananda Yogi Cookbook

Can i ask what hijiki is? this recipe sounds soooo nummy. but i have no clue?!?


Hijiki is a variety of seaweed. Which I think largely comes from the waters around Japan or nearby. Other seaweeds you may be familiar with: nori aka laver (the stuff wrapped around sushi) which I think is harvested from the waters of quite a few countries. And dulse which I think has been harvested of Maine Coast in USA. I'm not sure what part of America that is because I'm in Australia and unfortunately I haven't tried hijiki due to some restriction on importation here. (So I'll just have to wait till I go to Japan!!) The best places to find seaweeds though are Asian or Japanese grocery stores, health food/organic type stores.
