Bean Dishes

Both the beans of milk ripeness and ripe seeds are eaten - this is already in winter.

Milk beans

Many delicious dishes are prepared from them, especially when they go to the kitchen directly from the garden.

Buttered beans. Boil the beans in salted water, remove, sprinkle with finely chopped dill and pour over heated butter. Milk bean seeds boiled in salted water with butter are very tasty. Dairy seeds or bean pods can be added to all summer vegetable soups.

Before cooking, the tips of the green beans (shoulder blades) are cut off, the fibers of the seams are removed from both sides, then they are washed in cold water.

Dishes made from ripe, i.e. dry, beans

For ripe beans to be edible, they must be properly cooked. One of the cooking methods is this. First, the beans must be soaked overnight to make them swell. Then cook for one and a half to two hours. The second way: bring the water, with which the beans are poured, to a boil, immediately drain it and pour it cold. Bring to a boil again, drain - and so several times, usually 3-4 times. If you wish, you can peel off the finished beans.
