This is a different substance from those causing flatulence (those culprits are sugars). This toxin can be denatured by boiling the beans for 10 minutes. If you use a slow cooker to cook your beans, just remember to take care - usually the beans will not stay at the necessary temperature for long enough to destroy the toxin.</p>LongmaneFri, 12 Apr 2013 03:28:21 -0000http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/2009/07/31/beyond-the-babysteps-legumes-lets-talk-about-beans/#comment-31391329<p>I love cooking all kinds of beans, they re very nutritious and very versatile as they go well with different array of seasonings and flavorings. Its great to cook beans in pressure cooker, its a lot faster but its even tastier. </p>Ann of Pressure Cooker ReviewsTue, 26 Jan 2010 11:18:05 -0000
