I did homemade Anko (red bean paste) the other day.
And after that, I made Yokan using the Anko.
To be accurate, I made two layers of jelly.
The bottom part is Yokan, and the top part is milk Kanten jelly.
Now I will share the recipe, but if you are not interested in milk kanten jelly, you just need to read Yokan part!
Making Yokan and Milk jelly separately!
This Kanten(agar) jelly is so simple.
You just need to make Yokan part and the Milk jelly part separately.
First, let’s work on Yokan!
(For Yokan, you can use your homemade Anko, too)
Here’s the recipe!
