SWEETENED RED BEAN PASTE
Canned red bean paste is an acceptable product, but the homemade kind is obviously much tastier. In Chinese markets, you'll find small, plump dried red beans called _hoong dul,_not to be confused with adzuki beans, _zeck siu dul,_also small red beans that are oblong in shape. This recipe makes about 1 1/2 cups of red bean paste, just enough filling for Sesame Balls. Use regular brown sugar for this recipe.

Steps:
- Wash the beans, cover the cold water, and soak overnight. Drain beans and discard water. Place beans in a 1 1/2-quart saucepan, add 3 cups cold water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 1 hour, or until very soft. Monitor the pan to make sure water doesn't dry up. Drain and discard the water.
- Place the beans in a food processor and process until smooth. Add brown sugar and process until just combined. In a medium saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the bean paste and cook, stirring 2 to 3 minutes, or until the mixture is dry. Remove from heat. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator until ready to use; it will keep for 1 week.
SWEETENED RED BEAN PASTE
To those unfamiliar with red bean paste, the concept may seem strange, but millions of people the world over cannot imagine their favorite steamed or baked buns and deep-fried sesame seed balls without this lightly sweet, chocolate-brown filling. The richness comes from the beans themselves and from a touch of oil, though lard would be used by traditionalists. Some cooks use brown or white sugar; I use both for a deep, well-rounded sweetness. Red bean paste is sold canned, but it's overly sweet and incomparable to homemade. Adzuki beans are available at most natural food stores, specialty grocers, and Asian markets. You can also use the small red beans sold at Chinese markets. Sometimes I add a pinch or two of salt for a savory edge, reflecting a Japanese style of bean paste. The recipe here is more in the sweeter Chinese fashion.

Steps:
- Rinse the beans, put them in a bowl, and cover them with 1 inch of water. Discard any floaters. Let the beans soak for 6 to 9 hours.
- Drain the beans and put them in a small saucepan. Add water to cover by 2 inches and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to gently simmer for about 1 1/4 hours, or until the beans are very soft. Some will split open. Press on one, and it should crush easily with little pressure. Remove from the heat and drain in a mesh strainer; let drain for 5 minutes to remove excess moisture. Wash the saucepan.
- Combine the beans and the white and brown sugars in a food processor. Puree into a smooth chocolate-brown mixture, pausing to scrape down the sides if necessary.
- Combine the oil and pureed beans in the saucepan and heat over medium heat. Stir frequently for about 5 minutes, or until the beans have pulled away from the sides of the pan and thickened into a soft paste. The paste will darken as it cooks and dries out.
- Transfer the paste to a bowl and set aside at room temperature to cool completely. To prevent drying and promote even cooling, occasionally stir the paste as it sits and thickens. Use the paste after cooling. Refrigerate it for up to a week or freeze for up to a month.
