Despite the nutritional value and, let's face it, the decent taste of beans, this product still remains underestimated among many housewives.

Perhaps such “unpopularity” is simply due to the fact that not all cooks know how to cook beans and not spend a lot of their time on it.

It's time to correct this unacceptable oversight - we suggest you get acquainted with the method of cooking beans, thanks to which you will be able to delight your family with this delicious dish more often.

So, to begin with, the beans, of course, need to be washed, and then filled with water in a ratio of 1 to 2.

Wait until the contents of the pan boil, and then pour a glass of cold water into the pan.

After boiling again, the process with cold water will have to be repeated.

Thanks to the temperature difference, you will be able to ensure that the beans are ready after just 40 minutes.
