Beans, beans the magical fruit, the more you eat, the more you… The magic of making beans without the unwanted gas is to soak them for a long time, simmer them gently in plenty of water, and add a secret ingredient.
Properly Prepared Beans
- 1 cup Dried beans
- 1 piece Kombu (seaweed)
- 1 tsp Sea salt
- 6 cups Clean filtered water
- 1 tsp Lemon or vinegar
- Soak 1 cup beans in water with 1 tsp lemon juice or vinegar overnight or 2 nights
- Drain water and fill a pot with this ratio: 1 cup of beans to 6 cups of water
- Add a piece of seaweed to add minerals and remove the “toot factor”
- Bring to boil, lower to a simmer, and cook on low for 1 hour covered with a crack for steam to release
- Add sea salt at the end to taste
