Great video. I have questions about dumping bean juice, nutrition, down the drain. Also I would like for everyone to understand that tap water contains toxins and other crud so purify your tap water by means of superior filtration or by distillation. She said salt is important to the enjoyment of food and I agree 100%

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Thanks Terry for watching my video, I appreciate your time. Unfortunately that bean juice has the pungent smell and a taste that one will not enjoy. So unless you don’t mind the taste, go ahead and use it. You have a point about water but, how many people can afford the purification of water? Thanks again for the feedback

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

@@kandaman304 I’m glad you got the product. Let us know how it worked for you

[@hristov71]

Usually I boil beans and add vegetables and oil ,then I have problems with gas.But if you change water when they are nearly soft, there are no side effects. If you strain them and add to salad also I have no problem. Things that cause gas move into the water. Anyway your video is good

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Thanks so much for watching my video and for giving your ideas. Really appreciated. We help each other.

Great idea to use the asafoetida. I use a pressure cooker to cut down on the time of the cooking.

[@claranumberone]

1. Spread the beans on the countertop to check for stones and spoiled grains 2. Wash and rinse the beans twice with fresh clean water. 3. Soak the beans for at least 12 hours, changing the water every 4 hours. If you can. 4. Boil the beans on the stove 3 times for about 5 minutes each, rinsing beans and pot each time. This removes the foam (oligosaccharides) 5. Cook the beans with fresh water and add: cardamom, fennel seeds, rosmery, carom seeds (Ajwain seeds), bay leaves and ginger. Place all these seeds in a tea bag for easy removal after cooking. 6. Add all the spices you like such as garlic, chile, cummin, etc. 7. Cook the beans until tender.

[@sallykalya9023]

Hi Sophia. I finally managed to get that spice and boiled my beans in it. But my, that smell!! How do you stop your house from smelling like penicillin? I have rinsed and rinsed but still.,

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Hello Sanna, I’m glad you managed to get it. Did you get the powder or the rock? I know that pungent smell is not so pleasant. Did it work though? What I do is keep the overhead fun running and door and windows open. Also be very cautious with the amount you use, reduce the mount if after cooking your beans still have the strong flavour. Beans are very healthy and cheap, once you perfect the amount you use, you will enjoy your beans forever.

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Sanaa, I’m wondering, did you manage to get the perfect amount of the asafoetida to the proportion of the beans? I hope you really got it.

[@aniyaedwards3472]

Thank you so much, Ma’am. I’ll try this method for cooking beans one day. Also, will this work for canned beans?

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Aniya, since caned beans are already cooked, you can use the powder or rock during frying. Don’t use too much though since you won’t be pouring any water

[@fiyaz-koya]

Its actually South Indian most dont know the name asafoetida instead ask them for kaayam powder that's what its called locally

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Thank you new friend. I’m happy to know all possible names to this, I’ll add to my list and pin it. Thanks so much

Hi from South Africa. Asfoetida is also referred to as hing. I have not tried this yet and wondering if it would work in a pressure cooker/InstantPot. We have an electricity shortage and can’t simmer for that period of time.

Hello didi, thanks for watching my video, I appreciate you. Yes, I got to know the other name is Hing, it’s really good, I guess it’s a matter of getting used to the flavour. For me and the family we love it a lot because it helps us eliminate gas issues.

After the long cooking, is it of no concern that water-soluble nutrients be lost with the discarded liquid?

Great! I’m always very happy to hear comments like yours. Please share to your friends and family. I’m curious, are you having issues with rice? You can use it sparingly not to overpower your rice. Give it a try and let us know. I’ve never used it in rice before. Go ahead and experiment. Good luck

Zulpha, I’m wondering you haven’t replied to me yet. Are you asking if you can use the beans cooked with the compound asafoetida to eat your rice with? Please clarify for me

[@linkwalker99]

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Link Walker, thanks for your time and for watching my video. I do appreciate it a lot. This was one of my beginning videos when I was figuring how I could do this KZbin. The name is Compounded Asafoetida OR it’s sometimes called Hing or Heeng ( Hindi )

[@carlaglover1415]

Also if you let your beans soak for at least 12 to 24 hours you will see the gas come up that's unbelievable out of those beans I will never cook any other

[@reneeeaves698]

What do I do if I want beans with juice. Is the powder not digestible in liquid or flavorful?

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Hello Renee thank you for taking time to see my video. The powder does not have a pleasant taste. However if you want the liquid you can try with extremely little amount of the powder so that you won’t taste it in the liquid. Another option is for you to boil your beans with whole carrots and then discard them but keep the cooking liquid. Carrots also helps take out the gas.

[@reneeeaves698]

@@SophiaKamauTVShow peeled carrots or skin on?

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

With skin on. So if cooking 1 cup of dried beans use one large carrot or 2 small ones.

[@gracemuriithi2957]

Why pour out the cooking water guess has all the necessary nutrients.

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Great comment, that’s why I cook with plenty of water and pour it out only once after cooking unlike some cooks recommend soaking and pouring the water up to 3 times.The water also has the compounded Asafeotita which will not taste good.

[@sagarikap]

I think all the nutrients are drained with the water.

[@SophiaKamauTVShow]

Thank you for watching my video and and for your time. Draining the water is the only way and takes away the undesirable nutrients like the indigestible sugars and the phytic acid. Without this it will be so hard for your body to digest the beans and hence the flatulence. If you are worried of some nutrients, you can add some during frying. Check my video on how to fry your beans. Hope this is helpful
