Ever since the price of cooking gas and even kerosene and charcoal skyrocketed many Nigerians have dumped beans cooking but instead opted for buying cooked beans from vendors because of the high consumption of the fuel used in preparation of it.
But thank God for this brief method that help in saving gas efficiently.


Let me share with you how it works so that you too can also give it a try...

Picture1 shows how it starts:- You rinse your beans and pour it in your pot with water and add adequate salt and lit it on your gas.

Picture2 shows that the beans is boiling on the gas and then after you turn off your gas and leave the beans in the boiling water for some minutes.

picture3 after leaving the beans for some minutes and the boiling water is becoming warm then you on your gas again and allow it to bring again for about 5min and then you off your gas again.

Picture4 is that last stage as you can see the beans is already done and ready to consume but if you wish to cook it as porridge you can add all the necessary ingredients and cook till completely done
There's no disadvantage in preparing your beans this way but you will have to be close to keep watch and save your gas so that it will give you the most preferable result

THANKS AND I HOPE YOU GIVE IT A TRY

Long and stressful process.

Simply go get pressure pot and your beans will be fully done in 20 minutes. From start to finish.

It is risky


The pressure cooker can explode ; have an impact on the gas cooker And explode the camping gas too

Add the right amount of Baking Soda. Half a teaspoon for 4 cups of beans, and your beans will be ready in 20 minutes. Don't add too much baking soda otherwise your beans will taste soapy.

Cooking of beans only have 1 objective and that is to get it 'done' and this method can be applied to every type of beans because I've tried it on different types both big and small and brown and white.
Just boil and keep and boil and keep you'll see it'll get done and it'll help in saving gas



You are right. I stumbled on this method by account, when gas finished midway.

You don't boil beans in salt water @op. Salt is the last thing you add when cooking beans. Otherwise it will lose all the extra nutrients it came with.


And it will take forever to done. cool

No scientific proof to back up your statement but you used the word "definitely" . 🤣 😂

I eat beans but not really a big fan. I've never tried this, will never try it but I don't see this purging anyone. If it does then even if it was cooked normally, you'll still be purged, period

I swear, if op beans no purge you, e go definitely bloat your stomach. undecided

Do you think we are talking about some untested industrial pressure cooker?

If they exploded as easily as you think you'd be able to provide reports and there'd be few sold in the market.

To save money and time, just add kaun to the beans from the start wink

Add kaun, shey they will add kaun to the petrol they buy too and other items that have skyrocketed in price. See how he conveniently avoided the crux of the matter.

I did wonder.

I always add salt to my beans at start. I find if I add it later, the salt never seems to be enough, so I add more only to find there's way too much salt, and oversalted beans is just unedible

I guess you can stick to charcoal or wood and a clay pot to avoid risk.

Just know we are not "playing around gas cooker", we are cooking beans with it. And not every one is so afraid of the risk of living or is willing to bear the expense of not innovating.

Nah op you not a real nigga. that beans gonna purge someone

As a real Anambra man wey i be, i wash my beans and put on the fire, once it boils, I drain the water out, boil again and drain out the water for the second count. then I put back in the pot, add water, throw a spoon or two into the pot of beans, and slice some onions into it. and then before Aston Villa will finish beating Man city in the first half, the beans ready to serve.


Nothing sweet pass beans wey dem warm
