Guest guest Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 Judging from how long the cooking time is, I'd say canned. cherrie On Fri, 15 Oct 2004 15:41:39 -0700 (PDT), Michael Malenock <sunrise230 wrote: > Are these canned beans or dry? > > glitterophelia <glitterophelia wrote: > Alta Mae's Many Bean Stew > 6 servings > > 1 md Onion, chopped > 1 md Garlic clove > 1 1/2 ts Paprika > 2 c Vegetables, cubed > 1/2 c Pinto beans > 1/2 c Kidney beans > 1/2 c Lima beans > 1/2 c Yellow split peas > 2 ts Salt > 5 c Boiling water > Bay leaf > 1 ts Celery seed > 1 ts Dill weed > 1/4 ts Pepper > Saute onion and garlic in water with paprika.If you have a > crockpot,put all the ingredients in and cook on High for 8 hours.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Hi, The way I do it is this: Use fresh water when cooking the beans - not the same water they were soaked in. Rinse them several times AFTER soaking them and before cooking them. Put one small to medium sized RAW potato in the pot when cooking the beans. The potato absorbs the troublesome gases. Compost or throw the potato away after the beans are cooked (just don't eat it or your whole purpose will be defeated). Some people I know who have tried this method swear by it (myself included). A few say it doesn't work for them. I guess there's no way to know until you try it. Good Luck. God's Peace, Gayle - wwhite Friday, October 15, 2004 7:01 PM Re: Alta Mae's Many Bean Stew so, here is another question from someone who used to know the answer & have forgotten :^ ( How does one make beans so that one is not gaseous afterwards??
