I'm not an experienced bean cooker, but this sounds yummy!

Yea I want to know about the beans too. What kind are you using?

The only way I know to cook beans is Southerfied and it is not healthy in any kind of way.

I made Salisbury steak and "gravy" with some beef broth, oh my stars it was yummy.

Chaos Coordinator · 09-30-2012, 07:31 PM

they were navy beans (gaps legal

)

i soak them overnight.

i like to soak the beans overnight, then put them in the crock pot after church and they're done for dinner.

i've been doing half a pound of beans to 3 cups of broth. i think i'm going to up to 1 lb of beans and six cups of broth though because we are kinda on a beans and rice budget, without the rice. so, in other words, i'm going ot be offering beans at every meal.

brb with more.

the trick is to mix it with cold water or broth first, and then slowly pour it into the rest.

Okay, in an ideal world I season my beans with half an onion and several garlic cloves. Just throw them in. They disintegrate for the most part. If it really bothered you, you could obliterate them first or use powdered versions instead. And I add sea salt and sometimes black pepper.

Sometimes I'll cook the beans with a whole jalapeño and equal parts chili powder and ground cumin and then serve with taco meat.

If you get tired of the beans before they're gone, mash them to make bean dip or put on tacos/burritos.

Beans are like 60 cents a pound. Beans are your friend.

Joy are you using beef or chicken broth? Or whatever you have at the time?

I think I will try this next week.

Chaos Coordinator · 09-30-2012, 07:44 PM

Either would work. I've never made beef broth, just chicken and turkey.

The other night I served mashed beans with hunks of steak mixed in.

it was a good way to split a steak three ways, still get my steak medicine in, and it was very filling!

LearningMama · 09-30-2012, 08:06 PM

My chicken is done, partly eaten, and cut.

Now I have a chicken carcass. How much meat and such do I need to get off the carcass and bones? Do they need to be completely clean?

Chaos Coordinator · 09-30-2012, 08:43 PM

nah.

i just get off as much as i feel like digging through. i didn't even bother with the ribs or wings this go round. tons of work, yields very little meat...no thanks.

StumblinMama · 09-30-2012, 08:52 PM

I quit soaking my beans. I thought I was the only one crazy enough to do that, but I read (here maybe?) that lots of people make beans without soaking. I made a pot of red beans in the crock pot the other day. I covered with water, tossed in about half a head of garlic and cooked on high for 6 hours. They were perfect-soft but not cooked to mush.

I'll have to try it with the broth

Chaos Coordinator · 09-30-2012, 08:53 PM

soaking the beans removes the phytates. or something.

Yeah, it's supposed to make them less farty, I believe.

Chaos Coordinator · 09-30-2012, 09:03 PM

it makes them easier to digest

important when you're on GAPS trying to heal your belly.

For grain free gravy you can blend cauliflower, carrots whatever you have on hand and use that to thicken a reduced broth. Or you can just cook down your broth a lot.

Ohhh that is interesting. Is arrowroot considered a grain? That's what I use for gravies, and it makes it really thick with no added taste. I will have to try some mashed carrots. That sounds delicious!

LearningMama · 10-01-2012, 08:49 AM

So I'm in my kitchen feeling pretty proud of myself. I roasted a chicken last night that turned out great and now I have the bones and veggies on the stove making broth. I also have kombucha underneath my kitchen sink. Then it came to me, the prefect name for a cooking show (if it hasn't already been used).

Cooking it Old School

carry on....
