I was chosen to review Fujikko's Tanba Kuromame black beans. The beans are really plump, delicious, and big beans.
I made this dessert as something that could be enjoyed by old and young people alike. The skins are very simple to make, and the cream can be made with a hand mixer and a microwave so everything is very easy.

To make the most of the natural sweetness of the black beans this cream isn't too sweet and it's made a little bitter on purpose. If you roll all of the ingredients up in a chewy skin you get just the right level of sweetness I think. Please adjust the cooking time according to your microwave. Recipe by miyuki12

Steps

1

Beat all of the cream ingredients together in either a food processor or with a hand mixer.
2

Add the mixture from step 1 to a heat-resistant container, loosely cover with cling film, heat for 2 minutes at 500-600 W and mix.
3

Heat in the microwave for 1 more minute and mix again. Once cooled, cover with cling film.
4

Add the skin ingredients to a bowl and mix well. You can also choose to beat these ingredients together in a food processor or with a hand mixer.
5

Grease a warmed electric griddle or frying pan with a little oil and scoop up 1 heaped tablespoon (just short of 1 spoonful if using a ladle) and spread the mixture into a slightly elongated circle in the pan.
6

When the surface has dried out and the skin is slightly transparent, flip it over and cook for 10 seconds on the other side.
7

Arrange the cooked skins on a plate until ready to be spread with cream and cover with cling film to stop them drying out.
8

Leaving a little space around the edge of the skins, spread a tablespoon of the coffee cream mixture over the skin and line up 4-5 drained black beans in the center.
9

Roll the skins away from you and place them seam-down.
10

Roll the rest of the rolls in the same way.
11

Once rolled, use a pair of scissors to cut down the roll diagonally resulting in 2 equal parts. Arrange on a plate to finish. (Try adding extra beans near the open edge of the rolls fo extra taste.)
12

Replace some of the milk with the leftover kuromame black bean juice in the packet to make 150 ml of liquid for the coffee cream. Feel free to reduce some of the sugar. These are just recommendations though.
