What changes the calories
- Dry adzuki beans absorb a lot of water as they cook, so a gram of dry beans has far more calories than a gram of cooked beans, and you need to log the form you actually weighed.
- Sweetened adzuki preparations, such as red bean paste used in desserts, add the calories of the sugar and sometimes oil mixed in.
- Cooking or finishing the beans with oil, butter or coconut milk adds the calories of that fat on top of the beans themselves.
- Canned adzuki beans may be packed in salted or sweetened liquid, and draining them helps keep what you eat closer to plain cooked beans.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh your beans after cooking and draining, then log them as cooked adzuki beans so the calories match what is on your plate.
- If you weigh the beans dry before cooking, log them as dry beans rather than cooked, since the numbers differ a lot.
- In BerryFit, snap a photo of your bowl and check the portion size it suggests, then add any sauces, sweeteners or oils separately.
