No need to mess around with soaking: which product will cook beans much faster
To prepare a bean dish, experts advise using beans that have been stored for no more than a year.
Otherwise, it may turn out that the beans are too dry. The dish made from such beans will not be attractive, and the beans themselves will be difficult to cook, and may never become soft and tender.
Experienced housewives use a little trick that can simplify the process of preparing bean treats.
You can cook it without soaking for several hours or overnight. The dish will still be perfect, and the taste will deserve all the praise.
Experienced cooks bring the beans to full readiness in about 1 hour. At the same time, they do not soak the beans in water. The whole secret is in a special ingredient that is added to the pot with beans.
This is what experienced housewives advise to do.
1. Rinse the beans and cover with cold water.
2. Place the pan on the fire and bring to a boil.
3. Then add 1/3 teaspoon of soda to the pan. Then wait for the dish to be ready. According to experienced cooks, soda speeds up the cooking of beans several times.
