🍲 How to Cook Buddha Ratana Himalayan Black Soya Bean

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Buddha Ratana Himalayan Black Soya Beans

• 3–4 cups water for cooking

• Salt, to taste

• ¼ tsp turmeric, optional

Method:

1. Sort & Wash the Beans
   Check the beans and remove any stones or unwanted particles. Rinse thoroughly 2–3 times under clean water.

2. Soak Thoroughly
   Soak the beans in plenty of water for 8–12 hours or overnight. The beans will expand as they absorb water.

3. Drain & Rinse
   Drain the soaking water and rinse the beans once again with fresh water.

4. Pressure Cook
   Add the soaked beans to a pressure cooker with 3–4 cups fresh water. Add salt and turmeric if desired.

5. Cook Until Tender
   Pressure cook on medium heat for approximately 5–7 whistles, then allow the pressure to release naturally. Cooking time can vary depending on the age, size, and firmness of the beans and the type of pressure cooker used.

6. Check for Doneness
   The beans should be tender and easily mashable when pressed. If they are still firm, add a little hot water and pressure cook for another 1–2 whistles.

7. Season & Serve
   Use the cooked beans in your preferred curry, soup, salad, or stir-fry, or season simply with spices and herbs.

💡 Cooking Tip

Do not skip the soaking step. Black Soya Beans are whole legumes and benefit from thorough soaking before cooking. For the best texture, soak overnight and cook until completely tender.

If preparing a curry, cook the beans first and then simmer them with your preferred masala so they can absorb the flavours.
