Many housewives know about the benefits and nutritional value of boiled beans.

Despite this, amateur cooks are not always eager to prepare this dish.

The fact is that boiled beans do not always turn out appetizing looking and ideal in taste.

However, if the hostess learns a couple of tricks, she will certainly change her attitude towards the dish.

There is no need to do this. Beans should be cooked in an "open" form. This is a guarantee that the food will not darken.

If you don't use a lid, the dish will look very beautiful.

The Secret Ingredient

To improve the taste and consistency of boiled beans, add one teaspoon of vegetable oil to boiling water.

This sticky ingredient will help the beans become soft.

The dish will be so tender that even a seasoned gourmet will be pleasantly surprised.

It is worth noting that the trick with adding oil gives results when cooking any beans - white, red, and black.
