Hello, everybody!
Today, we're going to learn
really sweet stuff!
"Yang-gaeng"
Sweet red bean jelly.
The main ingredient is red bean, adzuki beans.
Since I was young, this yanggaeng has been my favourite snack.
So delicious.
Many people love chocolate these days,
but if somebody asked me, "You want chocolate or yanggaeng?"
A piece of yanggaeng, of course I'll choose yanggaeng.
That much I love it.
So let's start!
One cup of red bean, put in the strainer.
If it has dead beans, you can pick them out.
So my beans are really clean.
Nice.
And then we are going to boil these.
Six cups of water.
Over medium high heat.
For the first 30 minutes.
We boiled for thirty minutes,
but still, these red beans are like small rocks!
Hard, very difficult to soften these.
So I'm going to turn off the heat.
And then, let it sit on the stove top like this
for thirty more minutes.
These beans have been in hot water for thirty minutes.
Turn on the heat again.
Over medium heat, for one hour.
One hour later, these beans are going to surrender.
"Maangchi! I surrender!"
Wow~!
Really really soft.
Easily, you can mash this.
To make delicious yanggaeng, the texture is very important.
It should be really really smooth,
so we need to remove all these skins.
Press them down.
Like this.
This looks really mashed now, so I'm going to add cold water.
We're going to strain this
add more water
like this
See? Wow, really soft.
Creamy, right?
I'm going to use this strainer.
Put it here.
And this is a cotton cloth.
And now, this time, all water is going down,
and then all we get is just beans.
So it took only a couple of minutes.
It looks like mud!
Squeeze it tightly,
so we are going to get only beans.
Delicious part.
We made this with one cup of adzuki beans.
Nice, looks a little like one cup. *chuckles*
And then, now it's an empty pot.
And let's put this here.
I use Turbinado cane sugar, but you can use brown or white sugar.
One cup.
And vanilla. Two teaspoons I'm going to use
to make it flavorful.
And half a teaspoon of salt.
And then let's cook this!
all this mixture really smells good now
This is well mixed, around 3 to 4 minutes
I keep stirring like this and then it's well melted. Sugar is well melted. this consistency
and then we need gelatine
put this in a small bowl and then im going to mix with cold water
quater cup
mixed
It's getting thick
add hot water
half a cup
add this to sweet red bean paste
slowly slowly

Gorgeous
we can make this 4
let it cool down and at room temperature like this
I like to make it more beautiful
and more tasty, so I'm adding these chestnuts
It's a can of chestnuts you can get it in Korea grocery store easily
and it makes it really look nice. Especially if you like to make this for a gift for someone. It'll be really awesome!
So pretty! im going to keep it in the refrigerator
3 hours passed
YAY!
Beautiful shiny chestnuts. This is a cookie flower,
sold in a baking supply store.
