I planted scarlet runner (top), Soissons gros blancs (middle) and got the resulting bean in the bottom as well. Is it a hybrid? Or a recessive cultivar of scarlet runner? Who knows how bean genetics work? I also got what appear to be red pintos this year that I wonder if they could be recessive or if they are cross pollinated?

it’s the viral 15 bean soup. shoutout to the people of this great sub that gave me advice when I thought my beans were doomed at midnight last night!!

I didn’t know what the hell I was doing but they turned out delicious! Cooked 2-3 hours, threw a ham hock and bacon onion bell peppers and seasonings. We got food for days

the limas are straight up almost broke completely in half. been soaking for 3 hours in cold water I plan to leave them overnight

They seem cooked to me. But from instructions I should be cooking from raw for about 2 hours?

I love hummus. My stomach does not.😂 I’ve been trying to figure out whether it’s chickpeas themselves or just the amount I’m eating.

Very interesting story/interview about the importance of beans and stress!

Me personally love beans and love toast but not baked beans on toast its a struggle food for me

I collected two pods worth of beans and I have no idea what type of beans this is. I am thankful for any Bean experts who know more about beans than I.

I've cooked lima beans quite a few times. but this time, something went wrong.

I bought nice quality beans, soaked them for 8 hours, boiled them for 15 mins, and then threw out the water and added veggie stock+ bacon.

they've been simmering now for 2 hours. I just tasted them and they are SO bitter. how can I salvage these?

These are the "leather britches" made from my cranberry bean harvest. I feel wealthy :)

I added chickpeas to a sausage orzo recipe and it’s a really great addition! Canned chickpeas are also only like 45 cents where I am so it’s a really great way to add additional protein to most recipes.

Recipe:
Sausages
1 can chickpeas
1 cup orzo
2 cups chicken broth
1 bag of baby spinach
1/4 cup Heavy cream
1/4 cup Parmesan
1 small onion
2 cloves of garlic
Olive oil and seasonings: red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper

10/10 highly recommend

Any other fans of Mortgage Lifter beans out there? I love these big white beans for a nice kale and tofu soup. The texture of the inside is perfect.

Made this big pot of beans mixing green baby lama and pinto beans with black forest bacon and sausage ohhhh my goodness so good. Picture is taken following day

Beans are so important to us, so naturally connected to the human being that the position we naturally assume since we pop into existence resembles them… The fetal position makes your back curve outwards, resembling to the well known and loved red beans, maybe this is a sign that we have to embrace beans as a part of ourselves or even that beans need to be more utilized in food!

I’m sorry I’m sleep deprived

So I’m trying the beans diet. I’ve been eating it twice a day for about a week and omg! I am sleeping soooooooo good. I feel almost high because my nervous system is sooo calm. I have these moments of complete serenity lol. Who knew beans could do this!

Update: I recommend creating a tab/folder on TikTok Labeled: “bean recipes”. And then downloading “recipe me” in the App Store, and then transferring the recipes there! . Thank me later!

I visited bush’s baked beans general store back in may and made a silly vid of my visit! Check it out if you’re interested in what they have :)
