| Cooking Beans Can Be Very Frustrating (see Pics) by Nobody: 9:51pm On Apr 07, 2015 |
Came back from class this afternoon, i was very hungry,i could feel the worms in my stomach grooming to devour anything that passes through my throat. I decided to try something different for the remaining days of the week since rice took the whole of last week till this morning. I selected the dirt from the beans and introduced it into the pot of water i had placed on the stove earlier. Gbam! (na so i enter wahala ooo) I waited almost two hours and yet there was no sign of softening (beans of life)..... I quickly rushed to a nearby restaurant to eat fufu as i could no longer wait for the beans...

You must have added salt to it while it was still hard. Doing that will guarantee it remains hard no matter how long u boil it. Next time add every other ingredient except salt. Salt is added last when ur beans have become softened. |

The best way to cook beans without sweat is boiling it untill it's soft befor adding ingredents...if you add ingredents before it's soft it might take 6months to cook. ![]() |

I like bean ehn Never get tired of eating it that's why I don specialize for the cooking. Next time don't add your ingredients immediately you start boiling the beans. Wait till your beans is almost soft. |

It is,u don't put salt in beans till its cooked. Infact its only onions I put wen it stats boiling. All oda ingredient I add wen the beans is soft and don't put the salt b4 seasoning o cos it might become too salty tonywirelex: |
