1
Combine all ingredients from salt upwards in a bowl, adding water slowly until the batter is just smooth.

Prepare a steamer with four small pans, each capable of holding around 200 ml.

Add the baking soda to the batter, then quickly stir it in and divide the dough into four parts.

Fill each of the four pans with batter, then spoon a little bit of the azuki beans over them.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
