I'm not sure what recipe you're dealing with, but if you throw rinsed, unsoaked dry beans with ample water into a covered baking dish, they'll be ready after about 90-120 minutes at 250F in the oven.

22 Eargesplitten posted:Huh. I was making this: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/the-once-and-future-beans-recipe.html I've made variations on that recipe quite a few times. I've found that it works well to make the sauce separately and then add it after the beans are cooked. It takes like 2-2.5 hours of cooking instead of 8. Check this out: http://www.thepauperedchef.com/2009/06/90-minute-no-soak-beans.html It works.

22 Eargesplitten posted:I'm convinced, but I don't have a Dutch oven. I have an aluminum stock pot, and that's it. I also have some beans soaking already. Is it possible to do something similar with soaked beans, or should I just crockpot cook them and add the sauce afterward? I haven't tried them with the crockpot, but I can imagine if you bring the beans up to the boil on the stove, and then dump them into the crock pot, they'll work. I actually use a Chinese-style "Rice pot", which is a ceramic dish with a lid. I boil the beans in a separate pot and then transfer them to the oven. Other things that I cook in that dish at 250 turn out more or less as I would expect them to from the slow cooker. Soaking won't make it work any less - the takeaway from that article is more that you don't actually need to plan 16 hours ahead if you want to turn your dry beans into food.

wormil posted:I accidentally posted this in the chili thread by mistake, surprisingly the thread did not explode into a beans in chili debate, anyway... I still use both, but I use canned more often than dry now. It's a convenience/serving size thing. I only bust out the pot if I'm making something that would use 2+ cans at once and I have the time. I prefer "PC Blue Menu" (Canadian store brand) canned beans because they low sodium.

I bought some appaloosa beans because they looked neat. What should I do with my appaloosa beans?

It's good. I just wanted to follow the basic concept - I only had like 1/4 of the ingredients, but I toasted some leftover beans, mixed in some similar stuff to get a good consistency, and fried it up in a pan.

What subs did you make? I did appaloosa beans + roasted garlic + smoked paprika + dry cottage cheese + salt + parmesan + cashews. Toasted the beans, mashed em into patties, and pan fried em. Perfectly crunchy and good.

Number 1 Sexy Dad posted:A few years ago I had a really good chickpea salad with little pieces of pepper and onion and maybe there was some herb and a citrus element. It had a nice but indistinct dressing and the beans were nice and creamy. It was part of an airplane meal, ironically. Anybody have a favorite chickpea salad recipe? Today I made a chickpea salad. I briefly steamed some sliced garden beets and carrots, chilled them, and then mixed them with cucumbers, baby lettuce, and beet greens. Dressing was nice olive oil, balsamic, and a bit of citron marmalade. I forgot the chick peas - they're sitting on my loving counter right now and your post reminded me

This one is good. Ignore the cucumber as I just threw it into the same container when I left for lunch.

I made flalafel tonight out of desi chick peas. Was alright. Not good proportional to the effort, but enough to satisfy my craving in my falafel desert.
