If beans give you flatulence,
it’s because they have complex sugars that are hard to break
down. But here’s great news…
There are three ways to break down these sugars *before* making your
bean recipe…
1) Soak beans overnight in a large bowl or pot, then pour off soaking
water. Add fresh water and cook as usual. Soaking overnight begins bean
germination and promotes enzyme release. The germination
process breaks down the complex bean sugars.
2) Several hours before making your recipe, submerge beans in plenty of
water and bring them to a boil for two minutes. Next, remove from heat
and let the beans soak for 2-6 hours. Then pour off the “soak
water” and cook as usual with fresh water.
3) Sprout the beans before cooking them. We detail this approach in
Lesson 20 of The Vegan Mastery Program.
