Cool Beans: The Stak Co Gift Pak

Description

We package Grade A beans. After harvesting, our beans are graded, cleaned and polished!

How to Cook

Some handy cooking and storing tips:

• For best results when cooking your beans, we recommend: stovetop, oven, pressure cooker, bonfires, or barbeque side burner

• We don’t recommend using a crockpot or slow cooker, although some use this method

• Our beans are Grade A fresh, polished and cleaned. There is no need to soak our beans.

• Keep an eye on the water level during cooking to avoid scorching the beans. The longer you cook your beans the more flavour your beans will achieve

• Adding acids (like tomatoes and vinegar) too early in the cooking process prevents the beans from getting soft.

• You can store leftover cooked beans in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and you can freeze them as well. If you are storing beans in the refrigerator, keep them in their cooking liquid so they don’t dry out.

• If a recipe calls for drained beans, be sure to save the extra liquid. You can use it for many recipes, adding moisture to dishes, and making soups- nutritious and delicious!
