in Japan, people traditionally eat azuki bean when the moon is full and new.
kidneys, which govern hormons and other internal secretion, are most consumed on the day of full moon and new moon.
so japanese people used to eat azuki in order to nurture this hard working organ.
azuki is relatively yang food with warm energy.
so kidneys, which is susceptible to cold(yin), very much benefit from this little beans.
so i cooked this simple but delicious azuki bean today : )
thank you, my kidneys!
