frijoles-pintos-(pinto-beans)

Many think soaking beans overnight will help them be less gassy and won’t give you flatulence, or if you add baking soda to the water. In the pinto beans video that I already have, many commented about it. Other people said they cook faster if you soak them overnight. I discovered that soaking them will cook the same as if they don’t get soaked overnight. The ones soaked will turn the water brown sooner than the ones that didn’t soak. The soaked ones get bigger, but they also break apart more than those that are not. What is really true is that beans are very rich in fiber, and that’s why they will always trigger flatulence. Don’t worry, farting is healthy!
