Welcome to the Vegan Theory Club Weekly Megathread!
Question of the week:
What is your favorite bean?
Feel free to talk about anything, whether it’s vegan-related or not. This is a chill space for connecting, sharing ideas, and supporting each other.
Looking forward to hearing what everyone’s up to!
Don't have much experience with beans, but I quite like black turtle beans. Still struggling with making them, though. The canned beans often fall apart and I haven't yet tried with dried beans, as those are quite the commitment to prepare. 😅
Beans falling apart is a good thing! They turn into the sauce for other things in that way and is my favorite thing about beans
Well, the black turtle bean specifically has a hard 'shell', so you use it when you don't want the beans falling apart, like in burritos or salads.
That's also part of the reason why I think they're neat, they just look damn aesthetic: *removed externally hosted image*
But interesting point nonetheless. I have been trying them in tomato sauce, and maybe the hard shell is holding them back in that case...
