[Stoves] Lets eat beans for every meal!

Fri Dec 30 18:33:14 CST 2016

Dears,

  I can tell one important thing : Pressured steamcooking is not healy
becouse at 120° C you destroying the SULFHUR –AMINO ACIDS most important
essential bilding blocks from proteÏnes TO FORM NEW BODY MEAT ; Our body
need to contain 800g Sulphur !

Steam cooking without pressure is ideal and I use it 7 years . 

  But in Europe beans are sold mostly in cans  of 400grams . Ready for use
the hole year .

Hi Paul and Teddy,

from what I read I understand that the new products will be introduced in
the market in early 2017. I will ask my female town-dwelling friends in
Kenya to watch out for them and do some sampling and research. These
products could be very beneficial to people living in urban areas. As for
those in rural areas, soaking the beans before cooking and using the basket
cooker will be a good option as many/most of them grow their own beans.

Teddy,

Very interesting.   Can you (or anyone) provide more info about the
equipment (especially size) to pre-cook the beans.

 steam-cook beans in big metal containers, before cooling and packaging them
for sale.

I am wondering if the "steam-cooking" is with a pressure cooker?   And about
the volume of beans per batch and total quantity per day.

The shelf-life of cooked foods is rather short unless:
a.  canning
b.  preservatives
c.  refrigeration
d.  other ????
Are any of these methods being used?

Please keep us informed about this.

''George Oketch from Wiga village in Homa Bay County said his family of nine
now eats more beans thanks to the shorter cooking time.

"Initially, we cooked beans only twice a month, but now we eat beans three
times a week," he said.

The C$2.65 million ($1.99 million) project - whose first phase began in
October 2014 and ends next March - is being implemented by Uganda's National
Agricultural Research Organisation and Kenya's Agricultural and Livestock
Research Organization.

Ouma said a survey in Uganda showed an average family consumed about 12 kg
of beans per month, requiring around 288 kg of charcoal per year to cook
them.

The project, targeting a sample of 10,000 households in Kenya and 7,000 in
Uganda, should prevent some 400,000 kg of charcoal being burned per year, he
added. "This is a big impact on deforestation," he said.''
