bean paste
Savory soybean spread
Bean paste is a thick, spreadable preparation made from cooked and mashed legumes, used extensively in Asian cuisines as a flavoring, condiment, or filling.
The most common varieties include red bean paste (from adzuki beans, often sweetened for desserts) and fermented soybean pastes like miso and doenjang, which provide savory depth to soups and sauces.
The mooncakes were filled with sweet red bean paste.
