What was once old is new again.
Be HEALTHY.
There are so many things that are killing the world, so what do you do when you find something that makes sense? Duh! You try to encourage that something.
This is not a site for everyone, but if you follow my messed up way of thinking, maybe you may to see the the simple rules and how they can change your life.
140 gram so Chick Peas
520 grams of H20
** Guess we will see how they turn out and adjust since I can not find anything out there that works the way I want
So, this says that it is 3 cups per cup of chick peas... how do I find the amount of water to cook them
I can find the
nutrition data or I can check out on
Cronometer and use that app to track my nutrition for the day, but how do I know how much water to add to 140 grams of Dried Chickpeas?
While looking for the water, I came across soaking the beans and wondered what would do with a side by side comparison, or a compare and contrast.
- Beans cooked with and without acid (vinegar/etc)
- Beans cooked with and without Salt
- Beans soaked over night in water vs cooked by themselves.
Supposedly the baking soda (alkali environment) allows the beans to absorb and hold more moisture and do so sooner than even the unadulterated water only cook process.
I wonder what the chemistry of Baking soda has to do with beans?
Soaking beans in plain water and then changing the water beforecooking is just as likely to help. There is evidence that adding baking soda reduces some nutrients, particularly vitamin B. Baking soda also can make the beans taste saltier or even soapy, so they should be rinsed very well if you use it. >>>
OK, that is a NO on using Baking Soda
Adding the following spices will help neutralize the gas-producing starches:
Ginger
Cumin
Fennel <<<
2016.04.09 ** Just learned about a
Thermal Cooker but the guys links are broken but there is a great image of the front of the cooker... than goes to
saratogajacks.com and they have a
video of how to cook. Of course, I used Amazon to find a
7L version of the cooker.
