Mid April is hummer time here. I have feeders, but it's more enjoyable to be working in the garden and have them zipping around. I always plant 5 or 6 black bean runners in the garden. Hummers like the red flowers and the black beans make a good salsa.

Have you tried doing a pot roast? My 12 month old has started refusing meat but he will devour a pot roast because it’s so juicy and flavorful! But I also try to make sure I’m cooking all his food in a cast iron skillet. We do lots of black beans, lentils, add spinach to his scrambled eggs. Sardines, chicken, ground beef

Basically title. I'm a good cook, but there are a few things that elude me. One of those things is Mexican-style beans. I have only rarely had really good black beans, but on a recent trip to Phoenix I had some absolutely killer black beans. Full of flavor and just delicious - whole beans in a slightly thick to almost sticky sauce, and not much of it (but not just a pile of cooked beans with no liquid, either. It was one of those flavors though that wasn't distinct in any single element; I couldn't really determine what was in them just by tasting (for example, most of the salsas I had there tasted distinctly of Mexican oregano, a taste I can pick out of lineup reliably). Didn't detect massive amount of lard in there, for example but maybe that's hard to determine (I have had absolutely excellent pinto-based frijoles refritos with no lard, for example). Any suggestions on how to replicate something like that, or failing a replica of a flavor that's hard to use a lot of specific adjectives with, just really good black beans? Clearly they weren't canned; canned beans to me have a pretty distinctive flavor. submitted by /u/Ambitious-Schedule63 to r/Cooking [link] [comments]

I listened to this great podcast with Dan Buettner & Andrew Zimmern where they discuss how to cook beans (among many other cool things). According to their decades of experience, the method that yields the best flavor: low and very slow cooking. Start from dry and add a few simple ingredients (salt and maybe a spice or two). That’s it! https://youtu.be/-Gvu73VRxLc?si=ZXLjHuR2TSn6GRxe So I tried their cooking recommendation on black beans. I soaked them overnight, rinsed and cooked on low-slow heat for 4-5 hours in water. Simply cooked with nothing added, the flavor was complex. Texture delectable. And a more intense creaminess. I then dressed them in salt, extra virgin olive oil, and fresh lemon juice. Tossed in a thinly sliced shallot (soaked and rinsed to get rid of any harshness) and lemon pepper. Served with brown rice. AMAZING! The best black beans I’ve ever had. I used Whole Foods 365 organic brand black beans, $2.99 for a 1lb bag. submitted by /u/FewBit7456 to r/Beans [link] [comments]

Just wanted to share this cheat code. I eat a burrito every morning with 240 calories worth of black beans and some cheese. Important: drain the beans and keep them whole! This contains enough fibre and sugar etc to prevent hunger until late evening. Losing weight has never been easier. Keeping the beans whole extends digestion time - which is why they’re great for weight loss. It works like a natural version of ozempic - your stomach is literally full for much longer. NSFW warning: the gas is bad. And full disclosure, for the first time ever, I clogged my toilet yesterday. But apparently your body adjusts over time, and there are ways to mitigate the gaseous effects - eg certain types of foods and even enzymes you can take to specifically counteract this effect. Anyway, just thought I’d share, and happy dieting. submitted by /u/Key-Lychee-913 to r/loseit [link] [comments]

About a month ago, I started eating a cup of black beans on a daily basis to increase my fiber intake. I have always had major issues with falling asleep quickly and sleeping soundly, but a few days into eating black beans regularly my sleep improved drastically. I'd fall asleep within about 30 minutes, sleep restfully, and wake up refreshed. This is unheard of for me - normally, waking up feels like rising from the dead. I also feel okay when I've gotten insufficient sleep, when typically that would make me non-functional. Another thing I've started noticing is a huge decrease in anxiety, which I've struggled with for most of my life. I tend to have a lot of ambient anxiety, and a tendency to overreact to or overthink things. Lately though, stuff that would really upset me is fairly easy to ignore and move on from. Apart from improvements in sleep and mental health, my skin looks and feels very clear and soft, and my hair has gotten thicker. Before the black beans, my skin was super dry and my hair would fall out constantly. I've tried eating other types of beans (mainly pinto, cannellini, chickpeas and lentils) when I've run out of black beans, and haven't noticed the same effects. I haven't made any major changes to my diet apart from adding in black beans, probably don't consume as much produce as I ought to, and will occasionally eat plenty of sugar, fried food and processed food. That doesn't seem to affect me that badly, and cleaning up my diet (minus the black beans) doesn't have the same sleep-promoting or anxiolytic effects. I'm reading that black beans contain magnesium, tryptophan, B vitamins and potassium (along with the fiber and protein), but I've tried supplementing with all of these and never had such good results. Does anyone know why black beans could be helping this much? EDIT: Wow, this post blew up! Thanks so much to everyone who contributed to the discussion, I'd recommend checking out the comments below for information on why black beans have been so helpful: Polyphenols, anthocyanins and probiotics Prebiotic fiber and sleep B vitamins, tryptophan and magnesium Gut-brain connection, fiber, and short-chain fatty acids Natto (and black bean natto, with vitamin K2 / MK7) was also recommended for added gut benefits, along with Karen Hurd's bean protocol. And for everyone asking what kind of beans I've been eating, up until recently I was buying canned S&W Organic Black Beans from Costco, they're 15 oz per can and come in an 8-pack. I switched to dried beans recently because they're a lot cheaper, and buy mine in 25-pound bags at my local bulk food store (Smart & Final, since my Costco doesn't carry dried beans). I've been using the following Mexican black beans recipe to prepare them, you fry up 1/2 an onion and 2 cloves of garlic in 1 tsp olive oil, then dump in one can of beans (liquid included) with 1 tsp of cumin and 1/2 tsp of salt. Simmer for about 15 minutes: https://belleofthekitchen.com/mexican-black-beans-recipe/ Here's another highly-rated recipe for Instant Pot black beans: https://www.loveandlemons.com/instant-pot-black-beans/ I usually add some ketchup, sliced jalapenos and a couple tablespoons of jalapeno juice from the jar to the Mexican black beans. Without added spices, the beans are bland enough taste-wise that you can eat them alongside whatever other meal you're having, kind of like you would with rice or bread. For those who want to make them plain with no seasonings, add 2 cups of dry black beans (after removing cracked beans) to 6 cups of water, then cook on high pressure in your Instant Pot. No soaking is required, just add the dry beans and cook for 20 minutes for firmer beans and 30 minutes for mushier ones. I'd recommend not overcooking though, because too much heat will destroy some of the nutrients. Once the cook cycle is finished, let the pressure release naturally for 20 minutes (aka, do not unvent the pressure cooker), then vent the remaining steam afterwards and eat. Cuban black beans (regular recipe & Instant Pot recipe) were also recommended by some posters. submitted by /u/GarifalliaPapa to r/immortalists [link] [comments]
