Hey all,
I'm new here and newly vegan (about 10 days so far). I'm enjoying it thus far. My doctor recommended it for heart health and losing weight, plus I read engine 2 and rich roll's autobio and figured it'd be a good fit. So far, I don't really miss meat or cheese, oddly enough.
My question though is if any of you know of a way to cook beans so that they don't have you horrible gas, other than soaking them overnight? Can I just cook them longer or something? A few of my friends said you could cook them longer, but I didn't get details on it and was wondering if you knew of any other remedies. I love the taste, but I just don't like the heartburn/indigestion I get.
Thanks,
-Dan
