Beans - Blasta books 17
Whether you’re a seasoned legume lover or just bean curious, this book will show you that beans aren’t just good for you, they’re good full stop. The recipes range from starters, dips, soups & stews to full dinners, suprisingly delisous sounding deserts (Sticky toffee bean & parsnip pudding) and drinks all made from the not so humble bean family. There's advice on how best to digest beans, the many versatile uses of Aquafarba and even a bean bread recipe, as well as table for cooking time, advice on what to do with leftover.
Ali Honour's journey with beans started as a chef looking for ways to feed people well without wrecking the planet. The more she worked with beans, the more they revealed themselves as reliable, sustainable and full of possibility. They became more than an ingredient – they became the backbone of a better way to eat.
It's a lovely addition to the Blasta series, ideal for anyone looking to eat better - for themselves and the planet.
