WinnieAb's "Simple Seasoned Adzuki Beans" is a great recipe: http://www.food52.com/recipes/10476_simple_seasoned_adzuki_beans

;o)

great recipe in Elizabeth Andoh's Japanese Home Cooking cookbook combining adzuki beans with kombucha squash, very autumnal

You can cook them with brown rice -- adds protein and color.

Adzuki beans are fairly tender as dried beans go, and have a wonderful natural sweetness. I like to make bean cakes from them.
