Instructions:

Combine dried Adzuki beans and 2 cups of water in a food safe container. Store in refrigerator overnight (6-8 hours) to let soak.

Gather remaining ingredients and equipment.

Drain out the water from your beans, then place into a medium saucepan with fresh water.

Add in the 1 Tablespoon of "Put a Pork in It" and simmer it all for 30 minutes on medium-low heat.

Drain out the liquid and let beans cool. Can refrigerate for 2 hours, or make hot/warm hummus.

Place beans into a food processor.

Begin blending, gradually adding in the EVOO until your desired consistency is reached. For me, it was about 1/2 a cup's worth.

Finish blending with the 1 Tbs of water. It helps lift it a bit.

Add in any additional salt if desired, I didn't find a need for it.

Enjoy!
