Yossiiiiiiiii!

I'm here for roll call, but then I'm sneaking out.

Creepy

I am not. Well, sometimes on Tuesdays.

Did you salt the beans when they first started cooking? I've found this doesn't allow them to soften how I'd like, so I try to add it toward the end of the cooking process.

I deliberately did not salt them until just before putting them in the oven. My guess is that I didn't let them cook long enough. As an aside, it always amuses me to see recipes call for something like unsalted butter then add salt elsewhere.

Like, what's the point if you're gonna add salt anyway?

Good to see you again!

No, no. I'll be seeing you. Leave the binds tilted for me this time, thanks.

You could continue to cook them longer. The soupy will turn more saucy as the liquid steams away and they will also become more tender.

They will get more opportunities to tenderize when I reheat them later. There's enough left for a couple more bowls. In spite of this minor mishap, they're delicious! Bush Beans, eat yer heart out.

My understanding was that it's a more precise measurement, but if I use salted, I'll omit the extra salt. I tend to only buy unsalted butter.

Good seeing you too!

Holy shit Yossi is back!! *wave*

Yeah, well there's that, any thread over there has turned boringly nice. Even if something is of interest makes me have to check my etiquette. I told myself I wouldn't post there, and forgot where I was as I went done a rabbit trail.

*Yawn

Yea....It's just best to ignore it's existence.

!!! Hola, honey bunches. How's tricks?

 

[Lyricalli]

Well.

Did not turn out as expected. More soupy than saucy. Beans could probably be more tender. As a first effort though, I am quite satisfied. Enough to scarf down 2 bowls and want a 3rd. Definitely nothing wrong with the taste.

Next time you use dry beans, try brining them when you soak them. I've been doing this with all types of beans for a couple of years or so, and I'm quite happy with the results I've gotten.

Just to have more control. The salt in the butter may not be enough salt by itself, and there's no uniform amount of salt, as far as I know, among brands of butter. So, in things you can't salt to taste, cakes and things, the most consistent results would come from unsalted butter and adding the correct amount of salt yourself. That said, I often use salted butter in recipes that call for unsalted, because it's what's usually on hand, and add a little less added salt.

This was excellent info. Will be doing this going forward. Thanks!

Good morning! You're welcome. I don't know why I didn't think to share that with you before when you said you were going to be making the beans. Just didn't cross my mind, but I hope you like the results. I'm brining some beans now, myself.
