RE: Batch Cooking & Freezing Beans (from Dried)- The Easiest and Most Efficient Method
Wow, that's what I need! Can you believe it, it has never occured to me that I can freeze beans and keep them in stock in that way, instead of keeping stock of canned beans (which are expensive).
I have a pressure cooker and it's such a great thing for cooking beans, literally takes 2-3 times less time! So with that cooking beans is relatively easy, but if I forgot to do soak - than no beans. This will solve the problem =)
I change the water after soaking and rinse thoroughly, but I don't change water while boiling... I hope it's ok...
The harmful toxins are highest in red kidney beans and much lower in others. As I understand it the toxins are released through soaking dried beans for about 12 hours, so once that water is poured away I don't think it's really necessary to rinse them again after boiling... I was just being very cautious when I wrote this post as my baby was still a baby and didn't want to risk it! I'm really happy you found this post helpful @steemitbaby, and now you can prepare in bulk for much less cost, hooray! :-)
yaay))) Next time I pressure-cook beans, I'll put in 5 times more)))
The thing is, I also have a baby, he's just 6-months-old, I don't give him beans yet, but I will in 1-2 months, and I've never heard about such precaution, I'll probably need to do it as well.
Can you please see my post about introducing first food to a baby? on the top of my page. I really need some advice on that :) (not asking to upvote, just genuily looking for support)
