Brilio.net - Red beans can be processed into various types of dishes. Starting from sweet to savory menus, such as red bean vegetables, red bean ice, red bean sandwiches, and others. Not only are they delicious, red beans are also known to be high in nutrients that are good for the body.
Reporting from nutritionix.com, red beans contain a lot of fiber so they can help maintain a healthy digestive system. Apart from that, red beans also contain calcium and vitamin D which are good for bone health.
However, before eating, red beans must be processed first, because when raw, this food ingredient has a quite hard texture. Red beans must be boiled for about 45 minutes so that the texture is soft. The length of the boiling process is what makes some people reluctant to process red beans at home. The reason is, this can make gas use more wasteful.
To get around this, many people usually choose to add baking soda when boiling red beans . Baking soda is believed to help speed up the boiling process. On the other hand, the process of boiling red beans can be done more quickly without any additional ingredients. If you know the trick, anyway.
