Potted Beans - Tips & Tricks
• To make the beans cook faster, it is recommended to add 1 tablespoon of cold water to it every 10-15 minutes after boiling. You need to salt the beans at the very end, otherwise the beans will be stiff. It is better to add spices when laying the ingredients in the pot.
• The water in which the beans were soaked must be drained and pure liquid added for cooking. Otherwise, the dish will have a specific aftertaste of raw beans.
• Bean dish will be tastier if the meat and vegetables are fried in butter or ghee.
• If canned beans are used in their juice, then the slimy marinade should be drained, the product should be put in a colander and rinsed. If the beans are in tomato sauce, then you can add the beans to the dish along with the fill.
• To make the beans taste soft, add a couple of tablespoons of vegetable oil to the pan when cooking.
• Do not rush to pour boiled beans with cold water, this technique is suitable only for vegetables. Beans, on the other hand, are cracked by the temperature difference; upon further cooking, they will fall apart.
