ADZUKI BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Wash the adzuki beans well in several changes of water, then drain.
• In a large pot, bring the 6 cups water to a boil.
• Add all ingredients and boil rapidly for 15 minutes.
• Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 2 hours.
• You may puree fully or partially for a smoother soup, but I prefer it just as it is.
