RE: SNAP Food Stamp Challenge – Week 1 – Day 3
Yeah, my problem was that they were still hard even after all that cooking. I guess I was doing it wrong by doing this 'quick soak' method I read about?
It could be that these are an off-brand as I have limited myself to shopping at the 99 Cents Only store and it is mostly off-brand stuff there. I had no idea that even basic beans were different! I thought since it was so simple that a bean is a bean.
Next week I will look for black beans and see if they are easier to prepare - thanks!
Don't think there's a quick soak. My wife makes them pretty much like ats said, soak over night. It's a long progress for some bean :/
