How to Make White Bean Paste (Shiroan) (Recipe) 白あんの作り方 (レシピ)

  • White Bean Paste or Shiroan is commonly used as a filling for wagashi (Japanese confectionery) such as mochi and manju. The paste has a milder bean taste, so it makes a great alternative to red bean paste (anko or an)!
    RECIPE starts ▶ 00:43
    PRINT RECIPE ▶ bit.ly/WhiteBea...
    INGREDIENTS
    7 oz lima beans (200 g; See Notes for Japanese names)
    ¾ cup sugar (See Notes: Please adjust to your taste: ¾ to 1 cup, or 150 to 200 g)
    ½ tsp salt (kosher or sea salt; use half if using table salt)
    NOTES:
    Lima Beans: If you’re in Japan, you can get one of Shiro Ingen Mame (白いんげん豆) such as Shirohana Mame (白花豆), Ofuku Mame (大福豆), Tebo Mame (手亡豆), or Kintoki Mame (金時豆).Or you can use Shiro Azuki (白小豆). For White Bean Paste, please try finding lima beans (butter beans) or navy beans. If you can't find them, then the last option is Cannellini Beans. I do not recommend substituting with other beans because the taste and texture will be completely off.
    Sugar: Please use granulated white sugar, and do not use sugar that has color (such as brown sugar) because you're trying to make WHITE bean paste. If you're going for traditional white bean paste, the sugar amount will be ⅔ to 1 part of sugar by weight to 1 part of beans. If you reduce the amount of sugar significantly, it will not give enough moisture to the paste, which may result in a different texture. Wagashi is meant to be a bit on the sweet side in order to complement the bitter taste of matcha (drink).

    I remembered sitting around the kitchen table peeling lima beans with my mom and sister to make filling for a flour crusted confection called shiroan manju. If you wanted the manju, you had to help peel beans. I would give these to my Caucasian friends and ask them to identify the filling. No one would know that they were eating a lima bean paste! They were so good I could eat a bunch at a sitting.

    I am currently experimenting with this recipe and making it with what I can get where I am living right now (Bulgaria, although I am not from here) and so far I have had more or less okay succes with whatever white beans I can get here.
    My end goal will be to make shiroan, which I mix with some different stuff so I can ultimately make different flavoured yokan.
    Today's flavour experiment is sweet potato, which I can inform is turning out quite well if I do say so myself ^_^

    How would it be to just keep the skin on the beans and blend it up smooth after cooking? Like the adzuki red beans for red bean paste. Seems like such a long process to remove skins from each lima bean.

    I made this and it was good, but I much prefer regular anko.
    I've heard that anko is "beanier" than shiroan, but when made out of good azuki from Japan, it's not beany at all to me, only earthy, nutty and fragrant.
    I have made shiroan with white beans available in my country before, and I have never liked the final product; too beany, too pungent.
    This time I made sure I bought lima beans, and, while there was a big improvement in the flavor of the shiroan, it still was a little beany to me. Kind of like when I made anko out of lower quality azuki before. Not satisfied.
