Adzuki beans: nutrition per 100 g and example portion

Reference preparation: boiled without salt. The exact source name is “Bean, adzuki bean, boiled without salt” (Fineli food 31217). Available carbohydrate excludes fiber and is not the same measure as US Total Carbohydrate.

Values are rounded after scaling. A small reported amount may round below 0.1 g; a missing value is marked Not available rather than treated as zero. This selected extract does not include sugar, sodium or micronutrient amounts; the full Fineli database contains information beyond these tables.

How to weigh adzuki beans

Weigh plain cooked adzuki beans for these values. Sweet red-bean paste is a different food, often with substantial added sugar. Dry beans and cooked beans should never share the same gram-based entry.

Calculate your own adzuki beans portion

For the 150 g example, multiply the source amounts by 150 ÷ 100 = 1.5. The unrounded energy calculation is 136.6 × 1.5 = 204.9 kcal, displayed as approximately 205 kcal. Use the same factor for protein, available carbohydrate, fat and fiber.

For another amount, replace 150 with your own edible weight. Keep the preparation as boiled without salt; if your food is prepared differently, choose a matching reference or calculate its recipe instead.

How preparation changes the estimate

Adzuki beans work in savory meals as well as desserts. A rice-and-bean mixture needs both ingredients counted, and a sweet filling needs its full recipe or package label. The color of a bean paste does not identify how much sugar was added.

Meal ideas using adzuki beans

Use these combinations as menu ideas and adjust the amounts to your appetite and preferences. Each added ingredient belongs in the complete meal estimate.

  • Mix adzuki beans with brown rice and roasted peppers.
  • Add plain adzuki beans to a cabbage and carrot salad with a measured dressing.
