☕️ About this recipe:

The gorgeous pink sticky rice and perfect al dente red beans in sekihan are so satisfying and are so versatile too. You can serve it as a main, as a side dish alongside miso soup, as a lunchbox filler or even as cute hand-formed onigiri rice balls.

This festive Japanese rice dish is deliciously filling and delicately seasoned with gomashio (black sesame seeds mixed with salt), though you could use furikake rice seasoning if you prefer.
