Americans are afraid of farting but everyone else knows this is the secret to a long life.
Toot toot I m centuries old at this point.
Exactly this. My significant other avoids all beans due to the fear of flatulence
Tell them how they can blow up balloons if they fart into it the correct way. That changed my fiancés mind and now she can’t stop farting. She wears roller blades a lot more now.
Too funny lol
My SO hated me eating beans until I discovered that walmart sells a generic bean-o for far less than the name brand. Your loved ones dont have to suffer that fate
What’s Beano? The only Beano I know is this weird ass British comic book that my grandma gave me.
It’s a pill that has an enzyme in it that breaks down the complex carbs in beans and veggies so that you can fully digest them without getting the farts.
Wow that’s wild. Had no idea that existed. Very cool!
Beans are good. I’m from Texas and there are a lot of people here who think chili with beans isn’t real chili. They’re full of shit (beans’d help with that too)
Beans and other legumes make up a very significant part of my diet these days. Healthy, cheap and tasty, what’s not to love?
How do you guys cook ‘em?
Tofu (bean product tbf) -> fried or baked for most dishes, crumbled and refrigerated with mayo, dijon, and black salt for salads
Red kidney beans -> simmered along with the rest of the ingredients in chili
Garbanzo Beans/Chickpeas -> blended for hummus, same as kidney beans, but for curries and other South Asian dishes
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.
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.
BBQ Sauce, Ground Beef and Beans into the pressure cooker and boom, you got delicious meal ready. Add some high power spices to it like Carolina Reaper, Pepper X, Ghost Pepper, or whatever to suit your tastes and you got some helluva spicy beans to enjoy. It’s some of the best food ever.
I eat it along with some garlic buttered toasts and some vegetables like corns, green peas, and so forth. The best thing about this cuisine is that it’s as simple as you want it to be and it can be as complex as you wanted it to be as well.
I’m definitely one of the most picky eaters you’d ever met. I dislike beans, primarily due to the texture. Having said that, I do enjoy hummus, if that counts.
Other legumes like the chickpeas used for hummus are great too
I’d love to but it fucks up m’ gut, bobandy
I love franks and beans.
My family and I eat beans at least twice a week. In my region of the U.S. it is fairly common.
