Yankee beans

它是什么？

Often used in Boston baked beans, navy beans are small and white. (It gets its name because the U.S. Navy has long served this bean as a staple food). It’s also a great bean for soups. Look for navy beans dried as well as canned.

Kitchen math:

1杯干豆子= 2至2-1/2杯煮熟

没有吗？

You can use flageolet or other small white beans, such as pea beans, but cooking times may need to be adjusted.

How to choose:

Choose dried beans that look plump, unwrinkled, and evenly colored. Pick over dried beans before using to remove any small pebbles.

How to prep:

Canned beans should be thoroughly rinsed and drained before using. Dried should be soaked before cooking, both to speed cooking time and to reduce any gas-causing tendencies. There are two ways to soak dried beans:Overnight soak:Rinse the beans, then cover with an inch of cold water and let soak at room temperature for at least four hours or overnight. Drain and rinse the beans before cooking them.Quick-soak method:冲洗豆子，然后放入锅中，盖上一英寸的水，然后煮沸。煮沸几分钟，然后让它们浸泡一个小时的热量，排干，然后加入淡水并继续烹饪。

浸泡的豆子将在大约60分钟内烹饪。每杯未煮过的豆子使用3杯水。您可以通过在烹饪水中添加贝贝叶，草药或大蒜丁香来调味豆。在豆类烹饪时向豆类添加盐的神话将使皮肤变硬，这是完全错误的，因此在烹饪时随意盐以增强豆的风味。

How to store:

Canned beans have a shelf life of 2 to 3 years. Store dried beans in a covered container for up to 1 year. You can precook beans and store them, refrigerated, in their cooking liquid for up to 3 days.
