Azuki bean paste is a staple ingredient for Japanese sweets.
While homemade is great, it's surprisingly time-consuming and labor-intensive to carefully cook and crush the beans.
For times when you're short on time or want to enjoy it easily, Oshawa's "Ready-to-Use Bean Paste" made with Hokkaido-grown azuki beans is recommended.

This is a "tsubushi an" (crushed bean paste) type, made by thoroughly crushing cooked azuki beans while leaving the skins intact.
You can fully enjoy the flavor of the azuki beans within its smooth texture.

**About Oshawa Japan:**
Oshawa Japan carries the name of George Oshawa, the overseas nickname of Yukikazu Sakurazawa.
Since its founding in 1945, it has been at the core of distributing macrobiotic foods, selling products that adhere to the highest quality standards to natural food stores, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, pharmacies, cooking classes, and mail-order businesses nationwide.

**What is Macrobiotics?**
Those hearing this term for the first time might think it sounds difficult.
However, macrobiotics is actually very simple.
The word is composed of three parts:
"Macro" means large or long, as you know.
"Bio" refers to life, sharing the same root as "bio" in biology.
"Tics" signifies art or study.
Connecting these three, the meaning becomes clear: "The theory and method for living life to the fullest for a long time!"
To achieve this, it is necessary to "view life from a broad perspective."
If you or your loved ones are currently facing physical or mental challenges, try to first understand the factors causing them from the broadest possible perspective.
This is the starting point of macrobiotics.
