I will start a prep/vegetarian thread with as much nutrition info as I can dredge up or that people are interested in; and recipes, and I’m sure others will have lots of useful things to add.
There are many methods to make legumes easier to digest and I will list and describe as many as I know on that thread. A few off hand are lengthy soaking, tossing rinse water and washing well, long slow cooking, and adding gas relieving spices and herbs. Fennel, turmeric, ginger and many other culinary herbs and spices help with gas, those are just a few. Beans have to be cooked very very well; no al dente.
I don’t like using baking soda in them, never tried, maybe it works.
I’ve heard people say that you can taste a bitterness from the baking soda, so I’ve never tried it.
That will be great, be sure to ping me to the thread.
