Main Ingredients- 2 cups black beans (approx. 200g)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare 2 cups of black beans. Place the beans in a sieve and rinse them thoroughly under running water to clean them. This step is important for removing dust and impurities from the bean skins, so wash them carefully.
Step 2
Transfer the cleaned black beans to a large bowl and add enough water to fully submerge the beans. Soak them for about 8 to 12 hours. Soaking the beans sufficiently will result in a softer and more delicious texture when stewed. You can adjust the soaking time based on room temperature or refrigerator conditions.
Step 3
If you have leftover soaked black beans that you won’t use immediately, it’s best to drain them completely, portion them into desired amounts, and store them in airtight containers or zip-top bags in the freezer. This way, you can conveniently use fresh black beans in your cooking anytime.
Step 4
For black beans that you plan to use within 2-3 days, it’s recommended to store them along with their soaking water. Keeping them refrigerated with the soaking water helps maintain freshness and allows you to use them directly in stew preparations, making it very convenient. The soaking water can also be used when making the stew seasoning.
