cyberia posted:I had a bean fail today and want some advice. I was soaking a cup of dried borlotti beans overnight (maybe 18 hours total) and when I rinsed them I saw a bunch had split and shed their skins. When I cooked them they went to mush much more than usual. The first things I would look at are soak time and cooking method. 18 hours is a really goddamn long time to soak beans; most recipes recommend 12 maximum. Also, higher temps and more agitation (like a vigorous boil) will cause much more bean breakdown than a gentle simmer. There are other possible causes, like the cooking water being too basic, but that’s where I’d start looking.
