Finally a video that explains in detail how to cook dry beans. Other videos are confusing and don't explain everything. You also helped me understand some settings on the instant pot. Going to save this one into my library. Thank you!!! Have a wonderful day.
Hi there! I’m so thrilled you found this video so useful and yay for figuring out how to use your instant pot! That’s my goal - to get people to learn how to use it and make cooking easier! Enjoy your Sunday!
@@RainbowPlantLife You are scientific and to the point. Thank you!
You can also sprout the beans prior to cooking. You can sprout beans in an insta pot using the yogurt function. There are videos for this. Spouted beans have more enzymes and and thus easier to digest and better for you. It's really easy an they taste great.
*Instantpot
Your channel is a complete treasure! I could never figure out how to use the instant pot until watching some of your videos. I'm so grateful for your efforts to teach us all how to cook this way! Many blessings to you.
This video was much needed!! I buy my beans uncooked in a bulk food store now in efforts to avoid having anything to throw out or recycle (since most things don’t end up being recycled) but I was stressing about the prep it took and the cooking. This puts me at ease! So exited we got an instant pot for Christmas and so exited to have discovered your RUclips channel! I see a chickpea salad in our near future 😍❤️😋
I just got my Instant Pot yesterday. Preparing dried beans was top of my list for using the pot. I soaked Great Northern beans overnight and made them in the Instant Pot today for 8 minutes. They are perfect for my soup. This is a game changer for me. I love dried beans; no more canned for me. I seasoned them and they smell and taste great. Thank you so much!
You are so incredble. They just gave me an instapot and I was in panic, no clue on how to do anything. Your videos are sooooo well done and informative. I feel like I am a pro now in cooking beans and lentils. Thank you so much!!!
I've been waiting for a video like this! I love using my Instant Pot for beans but I never knew about the delay start and I usually just use water, so I can't wait to experiment!
That makes me so happy, Sarah! So happy this was useful for you. Definitely time to experiment with seasonings!
These are some great tips! I've always been resistant to cooking dry beans but you make it look so easy. Can't wait for your cookbook!
Thank you! Yes, cooking dry beans is sort of intimating at first, especially on the stove, but the Instant pot makes it so easy!
Thank you for a simple explanation. Following your instructions, I made the perfect black beans to complement my burritos. I never bothered to RUclips you, but as serendipity would have it, I already have your book. Just subscribed.
This was so packed with useful information! Are you sure you weren't a teacher in another life??? I just learned about the delay start setting, the better texture with soaked beans, that I'm not using enough water to cook my beans (probably explains a lot lol), what the bean/chili setting is (always wondered about it)! Great video!!
HA! Thank you Victoria! I always thought about being a teacher of some kind. I love learning and then spreading that information to others, so I guess that's a form of teaching :) So nice to hear you learned so many tips today!
I just bought an Instant Pot - mostly because of being inspired by you, Nisha, and your delicious recipes. I'm most excited to make beans, as canned beans (like black and pinto) are kind of expensive in Hong Kong. Now I can just buy bulk dry beans at an Indian grocery and make beans whenever I want. I also bought your cookbook on Amazon. I'm really looking forward to trying it! Thank you, Nisha!
The addition of carom seeds (ajwain) or epazote (from Mexico) really helps with the digestibility of beans.
Love the little tips! The 2-cup freezer tip is brilliant!
Hi Bhavana, glad you thought it was helpful :) thanks for stopping by!
I just want to say that I love your cookbook! It’s been super helpful.
Okay, this was so useful. I learned so much! I have all the ingredients to make those chickpeas at the end, so going to start on them now for our Sunday meal prep!
Yesss, get to cooking! i love that easy chickpea recipe - so simple but flavorful. Thank you, Nedina!
I Just got your book from Amazon today. It is beautiful. I’m doing the broccoli- tofu p117 dish tomorrow. So excited. Thanks
Hi Barbara! Thank you so much for ordering my book! That means so much to me. I hope you find something delicious to cook from it :)
Beans are the main reason I just got myself an instant pot and this video was excellent.
I can't wait to try all the different recipes in your new cookbook!
You are too kind, Helen! Thank you for your support and for stopping by today. Have a great Sunday!
Very nice & informative video about cooking beans - much appreciated. Never knew you could salt beans before cooking ! Looking forward to receiving your cookbook and start testing your recipes, it all looks yummy!
Thank you so much for your sweet comment and support on my book! Yes, you can salt them beforehand - it adds flavor! And the Instant Pot makes it so easy!
This is the best instant pot bean video!! Makes me appreciate my instant pot now! Thanks
Super useful! I love making beans in my instant pot but I learned some new things today.
What valuable information!
I never put salt believing that it would harden the beans!
Thanks again for this wonderful video!
You're very welcome. So happy you found it valuable! I think that's a myth 🤔but yes, definitely add some salt so the beans are well-seasoned :)
I had also heard that warning against using salt. Does the pressure component of the cooking override the use of salt?
@@anateal5601 Using salt is also fine when you are cooking your beans in a regular pot on the stove. There are a lot of cooking myths out there, spread by people who never take the time to test things for themselves. It's good to salt your bean water, avocado pits wont stop your guac from turning brown, adding pasta water to your sauce doesn't do anything to help it adhere to your pasta (although it does make it thicker), rinsing off your mushrooms is perfectly okay because they are already saturated with water to begin with.
Thank you for these instant pot videos! Beans and Lentils are always hard for me in the instant pot!
So happy you enjoyed this video. I also have a "how to cook lentils" video on my channel from last year :) And tons of recipes + cook time charts for beans and lentils in my cookbook if you are interested!
I just ordered a instant pot online and cannot wait to start cooking with it ! Subscribed as well. I am a vegan, so this will be great.
I'm looking forward to it! I ordered it when you first spoke about it!
Aww I am so grateful! Thank you so much :) If you didn't already get your bonus bundle for pre-ordering and would like it, just send a copy of your receipt to vegan.preorder@gmail.com :)
Loved the video! I just started to eat a Whole Food Plant Based diet and your videos have been a tremendous help, thank you so much! Could you please do a video on how to cook different grains in the Instant Pot?
So nice to hear that this video was helpful for you! That's a great topic for a future video! In the meantime, I have a grains cook time chart for the Instant Pot in my cookbook if you are interested :)
Yayyy! I made this recipe awhile back and it was yummy! Excited to make it again today
Thanks a lot for your honest advice!
You do a very good job! I really am learning a great deal!
Wow. Thank you. These were awesome. I am so excited!
just arrived, immediately tried it, cooked rice with vegetables, good quality, I recommend it.
If you want to minimize your farts 😂 Love your sense of humor!
Haha thank you Sandy! Glad you appreciated it lol
@@alexiawagner2514 Hehe thank you sweetie! You're the best!
Sense of humor? Farts are a normal part of life.
What's a fart amongst friends and family!!?! We now have to quarantine ourselves while in quarantine nope they are the magical fruit let it rip babies love to toot all day 😷🤪
Farts its part of life, but bloating because of food isn't. Soak your beans for 1/2 with lemon or lime slices. You won't be bloating at all. Our colon will appreciate it.
Thank you for the tip to add salt or seasoning before cooking. I have been following other recipes for beans in the instant pot and they come out so bland even if I add seasoning after. Can't wait to make some again using this meathod.
Hi! I just thought I'd add something I read/heard years ago. It said never use salt while cooking dried beans as this can cause them to cook unevenly-or leaves them uncooked-no matter how long you cook them. I've had great success with frequently cooking dried beans in an instant pot without using salt. I always wondered why people add salt while cooking different pastas, also. I guess, I try to cook as healthy as possible... eliminating as much salt and fats while cooking, e.g., I sauté in water and/or broth instead of oil (small amounts, just keep adding more, if needed). And, for years, I never questioned any of the above because I thought we had to use oil while cooking, that is, until I became a vegan/purist and healed myself of many chronic symptoms and diseases.
Beautifully made video, Nisha :)
Hello, my friend! Thank you for stopping by and for the sweet comment. Hope you're having a great weekend!
I have your cook book but never realized your RUclips channel was so pro. I’m lovin’ it.
Oh yay! I'm so happy you have my cookbook :) And thank you - I try my best!
Very helpful and informative and so delicious. 🙏
I'm glad it was helpful for you! Thank you Ana!
Very helpful, thank you.
Oops! Forgot to add, that I do like your channel and recipes. And, I'm in the process of looking for information on any difference in cooking navy beans vs. small white beans in the instant pot. They are a little smaller, and I haven't found any information on this. Will keep searching. And, thank you for the work you put into your channel!
Hey, hatch green chile! :D I bought an instant pot yesterday largely to make beans, as I'd debated for some time, but then a beautiful, glorious thing happened and I stumbled across your channel and cookbook. I had to order it along with the instant pot. I'm so excited for them to arrive in a couple days and get cooking ~
Tenshi Rondeau Was it worth getting??
Thanks so much! Great vid!
You're very welcome. Thank you Nealie!
I will try the beans in instant pot i never cook beans before in instant pot your book coming out on tuesday 18 june just one day before my sister birthday on 19 june your lasagna and bonus are on my computer already preordered your cookbook drooling over my samsung galaxy j4 love your videos making me hungry Thanks Ramya
Thanks Ramya! Happy early birthday to your sister! Thank you for your support, dear!
Excellent video finally a ratio water to bean. And my primary purpose to eat beans is to encourage farts.
Whatever floats your boat I guess haha
Soak for 1/2 hour with lemon slices and be free from bloating.
Good luck with your Cook Book! I want mine's.👍🍲🍜
I preordered your cookbook!!! I sent you an email hope that is what you needed for my confirmation. Looking forward to pulling my instant pot out of the cabinet and making some amazing recipes. So happy to support all of the hard work that I'm sure was put into this.
Yay! Thank you so much for ordering my book! It definitely was a lot of work but it was the most rewarding work ever so I really appreciate your support! Please let me know if you haven't received the bonus bundle!
@@RainbowPlantLife I hit the link button and it tells me file is invalid and won't download.
@@garden_therapy_nj Just sent it again via a PDF so you shouldn't have any problems. The link works for most people, but occasionally, depending on the device, it might be difficult to download.
@@RainbowPlantLife Got it!!!! Thanks so much don't mean to be a pain. Can't wait to dig into the cookbook!!!!
The farts must have been bad for you 😂 I’m dying listening to the gas stories
This was such an informative video packed with useful tips. Thank you for telling me about the delay start setting, but I don't see one one my Instant Pot? Is it a function on all the models? I would love to use it!
So happy you thought so, Liz! If you have an older instant pot, the delay start button is called "timer" - hope that helps!
Just made a batch of Peruano beans. Extremely creamy beans. Cook on meat setting for five minutes, vent, throw out the water, rinse, then put the beans back in with all the fixings, I love garlic, onions, a good bunch of parsley, a few hot peppers. I used a vegan Chorizo, a little turmeric and covered it all with water, one inch over the beans. Cooked it all for 13 more minutes, let it rest for five more minutes then vented it. Smelled so good I could not wait to eat. The hubby came quickly downstairs and pulled up his seat at the table. We both ate with smiles on our faces. Perfect buttery, creamy beans. Yum.
Hi Nisha! Would you know why we're were always told to NOT salt beans until the very end of the cooking time because doing it before would leave them hard? I will try your method because I am sure you are right about the flavor factor. But my curiosity still stands about the argument that it should be added at the end... Thanks dear! Always great to watch you and to learn from you.
Thank you Nisha so much for talking candidly about farting from beans. It was both funny and wicked helpful cuz I’m that person that needs to isolate herself if they aren’t properly prepared…😳😂
I love using my instant pot for cooking beans!!! That is pretty much the only way that I use it.
It's so helpful, right? Makes perfect beans! Thanks, Amy!
@@RainbowPlantLife Yes! It's wonderful! Just recently one of my friends got an instant pot because I was telling them about how I use it to cook beans. I think this video will help lots of people out.
@@RabbitFoodFitness That's awesome! I'd be so grateful if you shared it with any one you think would find it useful :) And can't wait for you to try some of these recipes!
Asafoetida is also a anti flatulence.
Asafoetida is used in savory dishes, often to add a more full flavor by mimicking the taste of onions, garlic, egg, and even meat. It's a staple ingredient in Indian cooking, commonly used along with turmeric in lentil dishes like dal, and a variety of vegetable dishes.
I just ordered your book! Love Indian food
So sweet of you! I really appreciate it :) There are some really yummy Indian recipes in the book...you must try the tofu tikka cauliflower masala!
Great video!
Danke!
Great informative video! I love your glass jars. Where did you find them?
Thank you! I've bought them from a variety of places, including Ikea and the Container Store!
Thank you!
"minimize your fart" LOL good to know! ur so funny! I'll be sure to let the fam know!
How do you defroze beans? Do You place it one night before in the fridge ? or do you take it out and place it on the counter straight out of the freezer?
Adding Lemon Juice to the beans helps break down the oligosaccharides, reducing the negative effect of beans (sort of like beano....only to the beans and not to the gut)
I've been doing this for decades...it works ♥
Thanks for this.. I always thought (from prior reading) that salting them whole they're cooking will result in tough beans.
Great video. Thank you. Where did you purchase the container your seasonings are in?
You're welcome :) I got it on Amazon! amzn.to/2JyhiRE
Thank you! I can't wait for your cookbook!
Aww Susan! Thank you! Hope you'll enjoy cooking from it!
Love the way you come right out with it - beans make you fart! This is the main reason non-bean-eaters give for avoiding beans.
Water ratio mentioned here is forvunspaked beans or both? In advance thank you for considering
My personal tips from cooking beans very often: add 1/4-1/2 tsp of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to the soaking and cooking water, as well as salt. The baking soda softens the skins. When cooking beans with an acidic ingredient (e.g. tomatoes), the cooking time needs to be roughly doubled, because acid slows down the cooking. Some people say beans will never be fully cooked if cooked in tomatoes, I disagree, they do, it just takes longer.
Whenever I cook pinto beans in my Instant Pot, I also add onion, garlic, salt, and monosodium glutamate to the water. Sometimes I use both fresh garlic and garlic powder. I don't typically add onion powder, because it starts to smell weird once the Instant Pot is done with it. I personally don't think it's important to use natural pressure release, and I will usually cook slightly longer than normal and then open the pressure valve immediately when the cooking cycle is complete. This way, I don't have to wait an extra 30 minutes to remove the lid.
Add two table spoon of apple cider vinegar when you soaking ,at least 12 or more hours . So can get the all nutrients from it . Many people think beans is full of nutrients but don’t know how to use them .
Thanks
Is boiling it for one hour the same as soaking it? Meaning will it use the same results?
does the older model have the mode for pre soak option?
Hi Nisha,
Thank you for the useful IP video. I have a question about the liner. How do you clean it? Mine has turned yellow as I use turmeric and there is a lingering odor of lentils. 😑
Um, I don't own an IP yet, but I think they're stainless? If so, wash manually with some really good soap-Dawn or undiluted Dr. Bronner's-and throw some baking soda on your sponge with the soap. Takes care of the smell and the stain. 🤗
Edit: f-ing autocorrect.
I bought your cookbook but don't see the recipe for the kidney beans you made here? What page is this on or where would the recipe be?
Excellent video, Nisha! Still on the fence about purchasing an instant pot but you may push me over the edge! I’ve noticed some models have a yogurt function. Have you tried making vegan yogurt in it? I’m a bit confused as usually when culturing you want to stay clear of metal but isn’t the inside of the instant pot metal? 🤔
Hi Anthony! Thank you so much! So happy I might convince you to get an Instant Pot haha. I do have a vegan yogurt recipe in my book! I list out the steps in a very detailed which help ensure the yogurt culture forms right and safely. But you can also put the yogurt ingredients in glass jars and put those inside the instant pot.
Thank you so much for this great video....no more canned beans! :) And so excited the wait for your cookbook is finally over! :)
Thank you Jason! I so appreciate it. I’m so excited for my cookbook to finally be here!
Interesting stuff! Is the water to bean weight ratio you suggest for soaked or for dry beans, or is it for both? Thanks!
You can use the same ratio for soaked beans as well! If you have excess water when they’re done cooking, you can just drain it off :)
Thanks for the bean tips and farts lol
Hello Nisha, I bought your book . You said in one of your videos that you had in your book a good black beans soup recipe but I don't see it in there. Can you help please? Thank you
I would love to buy your cookbook. Can you please tell me about the ingredients list, are they simple, easy to find or a little more complex?
Thank you Crystal! Many of the recipes use simple, easy to find ingredients (grains, legumes, everyday veggies)! There are some international inspired recipes that have some more complex ingredients (i.e., curry paste), but they are rarely a star ingredient that is essential. Hope that helps :)
I find biting into a whole coriander seed very unpleasant. Can I smash them up in my mortar first?
Is there a way to cook beans without salt for low sodium diets?
"So, if you don't want to get sprayed in the face with bean foam - I can't imagine you want to..." 😂😂😂😂💀
I just ordered your cookbook. 👍I have a Mini IP. I can generally cut the ingredient amounts in half? 🐘
Hi there! Thank you so much for the support and for ordering my book :) That means so much to me! For a lot of the recipes, yes you can simply cut in half and follow the instructions. But some of the recipes include "pot-in-pot cooking" (baking a cake or casserole in a pan inside the instant pot), but those pans would be too big for the 3 quart Instant Pot. Hope that helps!
Great, thanks. Amazon has pans that fit the 3QT. I'll order them.
What am I 5? I still laughed. When u said "fart!" Thx for sharing!
Then she said it again....then she said "smelly farts"
Is it necessary to rinse and sort the beans first. You may have mentioned that but I possibly missed it? Also is boiling water required for soaking?
Hi there, it could be helpful to rinse and sort your beans, though it’s not absolutely essential. I just soak the beans in cold water for eight hours or overnight. In the blog post I do include a way to quick soak your beans if you are in a rush.
Does cooking the beans in the soaking water really reduce the flatulence? I would insist draining and rinsing before cooking.
I like to soak it insiderher that always makes things work better.
I want to make chili with my instant pot. 1. So I let the beans soak overnight, drain the water and rinse so I will not clear the entire building out with human gas. 2. I cook the beans in the instant pot on high for 25 mins and let the release go down on its own. Then I drawn the water and add all the chili stuff and cook for another 25 mins or press chilli on the instant pot and let release on its own. Is that about right?
Nice
Unsoaked it is!!
I preordered the cookbook in the winter time of 2018. Could I still get the bonus recipes?
Hi there! Just send a copy of your receipt to vegan.preorder@gmail.com:) thank you!
Hi there! Just send a copy of your receipt to vegan.preorder@gmail.com :) thank you!
I need to know with can beans 🫘😭
What is this music it's beautiful
“Or you don’t wanna fart as much” 😅😂
The directions on the bean and lentils packet sais not to add salt in the beginning because it may not soften... is it an issue for you?
If you do the soak and delayed start, do you season the soak water?
Yes, I add salt to the soak water. I also add black pepper and bay leaves sometimes, but salt is the real essential one :)
Good video. But I STILL don't know how long to cook great northerns that have been soaked. I've looked at 30 videos trying to find out. I have 1.5 cups of soaked beans. I do not know the weight!
I soak for min 25 hrs . Sometimes 48 . I change water in between too .Lectins in beans are terrible .
What is that first dish that you cut to scooping out?
It's the first recipe at the end of the video - the spicy Mexican red beans!
@@RainbowPlantLife Awesome, thank you! Great video!
@@errorerror1337 you're very welcome! Thank you for watching :)
i know this is a 3 year old video but maybe youll still see this. adding salt to the beans before cooking them may seem better cause it seems like they sre going to absorb that flavor which is true but they also change the texture of the beans. ive never had issues with bland or over salted beans by salting after cooking i think you just need to start slow and taste before you add more when adding salt before they are cooking you cant actually taste to see if its enough or too much. so by adding salt afterwards improves the texture and flavor in my own opinion and according to my sisters i make better tasting refried beans than my mom so i feel like i have enough knowledge to say that
Finally a video that talks about beans and farts.
❤❤❤❤
That's confusing. The reason we soak is to prevent us consuming the starch that makes us fart. It makes sense that if you decide to soak the beans, you discard the soak water (aka fart water). So, the delay function would not be that great idea.
I get what you’re saying, but I’ve noticed a significant difference between (a) not soaking beans at all and (b) using the delay start method. I have little to no gas with the latter method.
Of course if you are very sensitive to beans and have trouble digesting them, I don’t recommend this method, as I mentioned in the video.
