📑 "Red adzuki (azuki, aduki, adsuki)....are also sometimes called adanka. They are a native of India or Japan and have been used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean cooking for over 2000 years ... used for...sweet and savory dishes...name adzuki comes from the Japanese word for the plant, azuki. They have a less beany flavor than other beans...The taste... unlike most other beans, is sweet."-culinarylore.com
