Method:
Soak kanten in plenty of water overnight or until softened. Squeeze water from kanten,
then tear into pieces. Put the pieces in a saucepan with 1½
cups water. Simmer until kanten dissolves, stirring constantly.
Stir in sugar and salt, then pour into a bowl through a strainer or
sieve. Add adzuki bean paste, mixing well. Cool down over
a bowl of ice water, stirring. Moisten the
inside of a square mould (5"x5¾") with water and pour the kanten
mixture into the mould. Chill until set for about 2 hours, then
cut into cubes to serve.
