This tips is important for students, who are struggling in there campuses, to meet up with daily living, and every young man or woman who cook beans including house wives who wants to reduce high cost of kerosene while cooking beans. I am here to share a just discovered method of cooking beans that will definitely save you or reduce the cost of kerosene, as we all kno the product is cost now unlike before. Let's go, after the dirty in d beans has been removed or as you are picking the dirty, look for a small container with water, be putting the beans there. In a nutshell, soak the beans in an ordinary water for like 30mins or more before cooking it. This would have made the beans to be soft and by the time of cooking, it won't take much time. The more you soak d beans the lesser d time d beans stays on fire. Thanks.

frying akara u hv to peel d back of d beans and soak, in dis case, u don't hv to peel anything, soak it directly wit cold water and then cook. It saves cooking cost.

Discovery ran a documentary on this quite a while ago. The documentary was actually about a refugee camp and what was being done to aid the displaced people. One advice the people were given was to soak their beans before cooking to reduce their firewood consumption. A blind test was done for the people in the camp and they all selected the soaked beans as the better tasting one. However, almost to a person, they refused to soak their beans saying it was "unhygienic" and that is "spoilt the taste" or that "it simply wasn't done".

Meanwhile, the test was carried out in their presence to show the advantages.

Shaking my head.

OP, there are many who won't believe you even when they have never tried it for themselves.

soaking beans for a while.den discarding the steeping water is actually good because apart frm d fact that it reduces cooking time it also help remove some antinutrients

If you soak beans do you throw the water away when you want to cook it or use that water is preparing it. Cos I'm thinking, won't throwing the water away reduce the amount of protein in the beans? I know it reduces the amount of gas sha.
