Cooking lupini beans, Help?
my husband bought the canned ones thinking they were good, but I've been cooking them for 4 hours now and they are still hard as hell. First I cooked them on the stove top for 2 hours and now they've been in the oven for about 2 hours and they are still hard. I'm cooking them in a kitchenaid covered Cast Iron. Should I give up hope and trow them out or continue cooking, if so how much longer??? such a waste of electricity though..... i can cook a whole chicken in an hour in that cast iron...
off to the trash they went...
These are a extremely long process. First you soak them overnight in water. Then boil for about an hour and a half. Drian and cool. put into a container (I use a tupperware) and cover with water and put in the refrigerator. Now you have to change the water EVERYDAY for about 3 weeks. This rinses the alkalai stuff out of them and they are toxic and bitter with it in them.
For one pound of dried beans:
1.Sort through the beans, looking for any foreign matter in there, such as pebbles or chaff or nasty-looking beans.
2.Rinse them well.3.Place them in a large bowl and cover with water.
4.Let soak overnight.
The next day:
1.Drain and rinse the beans.
2.Place the beans in a large Stock Pot and cover with cold water.
3.Bring the water to a boil, turn down the heat and let simmer for about an hour.
4.Turn off the heat and let cool.
5.Rinse the beans again and place them in a gallon jar; fill with cold water.
6.Place the jar in the refrigerator and rinse the beans well every day, finishing with fresh water, for at least two weeks. Mark the start time on your calendar so you don’t forget.
It is essential to rinse the beans daily. There are bitter alkaloids in the lupinis that are released in the water over time. You can see the rinse water change each day from a yellow hue to clear after about two weeks.
At the two-week mark, taste one of the beans; if it’s still a bit bitter, keep rinsing for a few more days until all the bitterness is gone.
When the beans no longer bite back, add about a tablespoon of salt per quart to the jar. (I use about five tablespoons for a gallon jar.) Keep the lupinis in this salted brine as you use them.
