Beans are high in protein, efficient to grow, and can even improve soil health. They cost less than conventional or new plant-based meats, and they’re increasingly getting attention among foodies.
I had never heard of this, and wondered why. Then read this.
One of the quicker ways to cook beans that I haven’t addressed in this article is by applying high pressure using pressure cookers. I grew up in India, where pressure cookers are the workhorse of many kitchens.
Soaked overnight and cooked the next afternoon while I’m finishing up work, since the texture of canned beans weirds me out a little. My favorite bean dish, which I just had tonight, is black beans + rice + onions + worcestershire sauce. During the cool seasons I make a lot of bean soups in the slow cooker, but currently it’s “hoard the parmesan rinds in the freezer until it’s soup season” season.
How do you guys cook ‘em?
If they are dried, soak it overnight and cook in on a preassure cooker. if they are fresh its easier to cook.
I add some baking soda to the soak or boiling pot so they’ll soften up faster. explained here.
