Gather together your ingredients (Makes 10-15 pastries depending on how large you make them).
For this recipe, you will need:
- 1 package prepared red bean paste (available at Asian/Chinese food stores - see above picture)
- 2 cups regular white flour
- 1/3 cup coconut oil or butter, softened - I like organic Omega Nutrition brand coconut oil
- just under 1 cup cold water (1 cup minus 2 Tbsp.)
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. rice vinegar OR regular white vinegar OR apple cider vinegar
- optional: 1 egg, beaten (although not necessary, the egg will give your pastries an added golden-brown sheen)
