Just add a little water, if that waters it out too much, add flour.
1 cup of dry beans=2 1/2 to 3 cups of cooked beans/
Anything that is steamed needs water, since steam is created from water.
Place the pinto beans in a large pot and add 6 cups of cold tap water. Then let it boil for 2 minutes and let the beans stand unheated for an hour afterwards. Then begin browing bacon over medium heat and add onion to the pot. Then add the beans again and add a pinch of salt.
Sort and rinse the beans. Discard any beans that are shriveled or cracked. Add the beans to a large pot and cover them with water. The pot needs to be big enough to allow the dried beans to expand three times their size. You will need 6 to 8 cups of water per pound of dried pinto beans. Boil for the water three minutes and remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pot and allow the beans to sit for 1 to 4 hours, depending on how much time you have. One hour is enough time for the beans to soak, but more time can reduce how much gas the beans produce. Discard the soaking water. Rinse the beans one more time and then proceed to cook them as normal.
sprinkle in some sugar.
Ground coffee beans and water. Also milk and sugar, if you take it. :)
No, beans are extremely sensitive to quite low levels of salt in the water or soil.
usually beans double in size when cooked so 1/2 cup ==No, the nutrition facts don't change much, but there are things you can do to maximize the nutrition of your beans. A lot of the vitamins and other nutrients may end up in the broth, so be sure to drink the broth too. Also the spices and flavors you add to boiled beans can add to it, for example black strap molasses adds Manganeese and nutrients like that. Be sure not to over-cook the beans. If you boil the water first and then add the beans they cook less time and you lose less nutrients. Also, do not cook them on a higher temperature than you need to, because as with any food, high temperatures take out more of the nutrients. ==

Depending on how much salt you add to the water and how warm the water is... the salt will disolve
shop ham in small pieces. Add water, potatoes, celery. Boil water with ham, potatoes, celery, add seasonings and ingredients, after potatoes is done, add any type of noodles, I prefer the tini spagetty noodles. (soup noodles) add chicken bullion, tomatoe sauce (optional), add ground pepper, lemon juice...Enjoy it with some steam rice!
