Bean Paste/Lotus Seed Paste Pastry

Bean Paste/Lotus Seed Paste Pastry is a traditional Chinese dessert made with a pastry shell filled with a sweet paste made from either red bean or lotus seeds. The pastry is typically baked in an oven until golden brown.

Both red bean paste and lotus seed paste are considered to be nutritious ingredients. Red bean paste is high in fiber and protein, and is a good source of iron and various minerals. Lotus seed paste is rich in protein, potassium, magnesium, and other minerals. However, due to the high sugar content in these pastes, they should be consumed in moderation. Pastry shells are usually made from flour, butter, sugar, and eggs, and are high in carbohydrates and calories. Therefore, consumption of Bean Paste/Lotus Seed Paste Pastry should also be moderate in order to maintain a healthy diet.
