Beans does not only cause heart burn; it causes flatulence(meaning very smelly fart and stomach cramps) so i cook my beans as follows; boil the beans for 2mins; turn off the heat and leave it to soak for 1hour. or better still, boil for 2mins; drain off the water pour in another boiling water and soak for 1hour; drain it and cook in fresh water till done. fry other ingredients like onions, tomatoes, tomato paste, red pepper, crayfish adding salt, maggi, garlic and thyme. Then combine it with the cooked beans, mix well and cover so that the flavour will combine well. my beans is always a favourite. give it a go. you can add, flaked fish like tuna or mackrel or even shredded chicken, beef anything you like. sometimes i add only vegetables and its nice and more healthy. let me know how it goes, happy cooking 1 Like |

chefmerbel:The procedure you have listed WILL NOT solve the problem of flatulence. Beans belongs to the category of food that get sour; that is, attract bacteria, activity easily. Egusi and okro soups belong to the list. The way to stop yourself gassing when you eat beans is simple really: eat it hot. If you take your beans from the fire, I guarantee you 100% that you will not gas, even if you eat one bucket of it. If you don't like hot food, it becomes a bit difficult but you can still greatly minimise the problem by eating it immediately it gets cool from the fire. deltalife:I assume you are in Nigeria. 1. Try the white beans from up north, the one commonly sold in markets, instead of the brownish type popular among South Westerners. 2. Keep stuff like tomatoes and garlic out of your beans - these only increase the acid content of the stuff which worsens the problem. Onions, too. Yes, onions. 3. Don't eat your beans at night. Eat them in the daytime and remain in an upright position; that is, don't lie down. 4. Don't consume too much beans - if you like to too fill your tommy, reserve it for the rice occasions. 5. If you like to add things to your beans, pick them carefully. Fish is good, for instance, but boil it, don't fry it. Vegetables are fine. If the problem persists after you have tried the above, you may have to try de-shelling; that is, removing the stuff around the beans before cooking like they do when making moi moi. Or you may be suffering from some kind of acid reflux. 2 Likes |
