yeah!! i'd like to know how to do beans in the crockpot! (and since

this is a veg list, i won't have to worry about the first ingredient

being " ham hocks " or something like that!)

 

Thanks bunches,

i'm sorry! i didn't specify, did I? i mean general directions for

cooking a mess of beans (pintos, black beans etc) in the crock pot vs on

the stove. I'm guessing after a soak, all day on low would be about

right, but i'd like to hear from someone who's done this and not either

burnt the beans or had a big mess. :-)

 

Thanks again,

have cooked dried beans of all kinds in the crockpot for years. Put them on

the night before, late, on low, no presoaking necessary. Add all of the spices

an hour or so before serving the next night. If you add them too soon, the

flavor cooks out. With a batch of corn bread, it makes a very easy supper. If

I make enough, I use the rest for chili or baked beans another night.

Since she is not affiliated with this company and sincerely just a happy

customer I don't see the harm in forwarding this to the list. I hope you

don't mind.

Thanks for the info. Ruth.

Can you freeze cooked dry beans? For how long? How and would you

season them for freezing? Or is keeping lots of canned beans a better

solution? Any suggestions will help. Thank you

I do it all the time, all kinds of beans, all kinds of recipes. I

make refried pinto beans and black bean soup often. I usually make to

much to eat all at once and it is the same work to make a lot or a

little, so I freeze them in zip lock bags (freezer ones)for a couple

of portions at a time. I also cook chickpeas just with a bay leave and

add a little salt after they are soft, and I season them after

thawing. Same with navy and cannelini beans. I never noticed any

change in flavor or texture from freezing any bean. You could keep

canned beans also of course, but I find the home cooked ones have less

salt, I like my seasonings better and it also saves money usually.

I have a lot a variety of canned beans I keep on hand

and I use for quick meals, toss into soups, make

hummus with.

When I make a crockpot of pressure cooker full of

beans I freeze in quart size freezer bags and I eat

them within 2 months.

I often freeze cooked dried beans - I drain them, cool them quickly in

the fridge and then freeze them in containers. It is useful as you can

just add a handful to whatever you are cooking for a bit of additional

protein or texture. You should be able to store them in the freezer for

several months - frankly I've frozen them for a couple of years and

they've been fine. On the other hand I'm probably not the best person

to give advice - I recently made a gooseberry crumble with some frozen

gooseberries dated July 1984 which I have obviously been ignoring at

the bottom of my freezer for the last 22 years - it tasted as good as

if they had been frozen yesterday but I suspect that the vitamin

content was zero and I don't think I would have inflicted them on

anyone else in case they made them ill.

Thanks so much for the tip. I have dried beans that I

was trying to decide what to do with. I didn't want

to use them, but my husband isn't keen on wasting

things either. My Grandma used to make bean bags for

me when I was younger. The kids and I could make them

together.

I had a lot of beans in my pantry too. So my granddaughter and I made up a

whole lot of bean bags. I sewed them and she filled them. We have had so much

fun making up all kinds of games with them. Even the adults like to play the

games. Fun, fun, fun!!!!!

Personally, I found years ago that the best way to deal with gassiness is to

incorporate a lot of fresh salads in your diet. Soon thereafter, your body

developes the necessary " flora'n'fauna " to digest beans without any discomfort

or violation of local EPA standards.

 

As to the " broth " from cooking, it's great in soups or sauces (but then, I'm not

using a pressure cooker).

The type of indigestible sugars present in beans are not digestible by any

means,

except perhaps by the enzyme product, " Beano " . Some people may not feel

comfortable using that product, so throwing away soaking water (which contains

much of the sugar) is the preferable means of controlling gassiness for the

people who are most affected by it.... M. Williams

beans

 

 

I`m finally getting into the habbit of cooking beans rather than canned. I`m

guessing I can make large amounts and freeze them in the same water I cook them

in - what do you think?
