Is guar gum a legume?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Guar gum is extracted from the bean of the Indian guar plant, a different plant.

While it is true that guar gum is not derived from the seeds or any part of the soybean or soy plant, it should be noted that they are both members of the same plant family: legumes. As legumes, they can in fact cause an allergic reaction in anyone already allergic to another legume. This includes soy and peanuts, as well as beans and peas. Search for <Leguminous Plants> to find a full list of these soy "cousins".

Where can one buy garbanzo beans?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You don't mention your country so this answer may not address your needs. However, chickpeas are actually garbanzo beans. To buy them fresh, you should telephone your local produce manager (if you have access to large grocery stores) and ask if the store carries them. If you cannot find a chain, try an ethnic grocery store (Indian, Mexican, Greek) and see if they carry them. They're available throughout the United States at various large chain grocery stores but only during a limited time. Otherwise, the only remaining suggestion is to locate a specialty grocery supplier on line and see if you can have them shipped fresh to you.

How do you prepare Refried beans?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If they are dried beans, put in some smoked meat like turkey (more healthy) in a large pot with water, season with salt, pepper, (onion or garlic seasons, optional) and a little oil. Cook on high first, then medium heat until the bigger beans are tender. I dice up an onion towards the end and put in the pot. It's good. You can cook all dried beans like this.
