Steam Cooking
Legumes
- Dried -
Soak legumes for at least 10 hours in cold water before cooking.
Soaking makes the legumes more digestible and shortens the cooking duration required.
Exception: Lentils do not need to be soaked.
Soaked legumes must be covered with liquid during cooking. When not soaked, depending on the variety, legumes must have a certain ratio of legumes: liquid.
