@ahnestkitchen: Here’s how my mom preps and cooks beans (with no splitting) so she always has them on hand for a variety of dishes like bean smoothie, soups and stews, and multigrain rice. INGREDIENTS: 1 cup (197g) chickpeas 1 cup (190g) pinto beans 1 cup (173g) black soybeans 6 cups water (you need to make sure it's more than just submerged since the beans absorb water and the tops can dry out if there isn’t enough) INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Add the beans to a large bowl and cover with 6 cups of water. Soak for at least 8 hours or overnight. Drain and rinse well. 2. Pour about 1 inch of water into an instant pot and place a collapsible steamer basket inside (the water should not touch the basket). Add the soaked beans in an even layer. Lock the lid and close the pressure-release valve. Cook on High Pressure for 7 minutes. 4. Turn off the instant pot and quick-release the pressure. Carefully open the lid, allowing the steam to escape away from you. Remove the steamer basket and let the beans cool to room temperature. Transfer to a zipper-lock bag and freeze. #mealprep #koreanfood #beans #plantbased #CookingHacks
I've never seen anyone steam them instead of putting them in the water 🥰

I didn't know you can use a steam basket to cook beans in a pressure cooker.

With an instant pot, you don’t need to soak them — just put dried beans + water in the pot, and do 30 minutes + natural release. One step only! 🫘

What is another option to cook the beans if you don’t have an instant pot?

All legumes are beans, all beans are legumes. Don’t let pedantic comments keep you down.

I freeze like half my beans in the bean water and use souper cubes to freeze. Then when I make soup or chili the bean water just adds flavor.

Your multigrain rice is amazing! The comments in that’s video had me thinking everyone only eats chicken nuggets and fries apparently. Your family makes amazing food ❤️

I totally bragged to my mom earlier today about how genius I thought your mom was for freezing cooked beans to add to rice.

🚨 just a heads up, pretty sure heat sources like pressure cookers, air fryers etc can crack or make these stove tops explode due to quick heat changes I believe.... best to keep them off these stove tops for safety.
