Soaking pinto beans before you cook them speeds up cookign time and allows some of the gas to escape. When soaking beans the water should be change the water several time, or when it begins to turn dark.
No. Not as long as the water is fresh. But they will be more tender.
No. It has to do with the seed variety and the growing region in which they are grown. Traditionally pinto beans grown in Mexico are lighter in color. Beans grown in Colorado and the Dakotas are a darker variety. Same flavor just a different color. ;)
I'm not quite sure what you mean by if soaked beans are spoiled. If you soaked them and forgot about them they are probably fine unless they look weird, smell bad or have mold. If you mean how to tell if they are old, I would just cook them. If they don't soften they are old.
They are fermenting.
A urine soaked mattress is bad. You should probably wash the mattress.
Baked beans are not bad for you.
because they are beans
yes it can be revolting if it does get soaked too long leave it soaking for 2 hours
Dry beans should be soaked in water for at least 12 hours and more appropriately, 24-hours, before use. It's best to separate the dry beans first - removing any that are deformed or bad or not even beans... just a casual scan of them is fine. Then rinse the beans. Then soak the beans and change the water about every 4-8 hours. Use salted water. This will remove the toxins that cause flatulence (farting) - and also soften the beans up so they are easier to cook. Nobody likes grainy, mealy beans.
He was pushing,yelling. Bad luck.
yes
Beans, beans, beans.......good for your heart, the more you eat, the more you fart.
Yes, if they are not protected from moisture, heat and light. If properly stored, they could last for years. In a waterproof container, they can keep up to 2 years. If stored hermetically sealed and in the absence of oxygen, they can last even longer. See Related Links.
