Free Vegetarian Report: Beans Without Gas
How To Cook and Eat Beans Without Gas On A Vegetarian Diet
When I was going vegetarian, the subject of beans and gas was never discussed, never mind effectively dealt with. I suffered some agonizing and embarassing moments, as a new vegetarian, and it took many years for me to figure out how to cook and eat beans without gas on a vegetarian diet.
As a vegetarian, I've heard plenty of bean tips that didn't work! And I've seen a paragraph or two, here and there, on the subject of beans and gas. I've put together an understanding from these bits and pieces of information and misinformation, from my own vegetarian experience, and borrowed from Ayurveda.
The badly misunderstood bean has been a staple of the human diet for thousands of years, and a major source of high quality, inexpensive vegetarian protein.
There are hundreds of varieties of beans and lentils available, in a wide range of tastes and nutritional qualities, adaptable to an immense number of delicious vegetarian dishes.
How To Eat Beans Without Gas was one of the first vegetarian advice letters I published on Savvy Vegetarian. 'Embarrassed' wasn't an individual, but represented many vegetarians who have asked me this question over and over through the years, in various ways. My answer was a short essay.
Beans without gas has been a hot topic on Savvy Vegetarian, from the beginning. So I decided to make my short essay into a vegetarian report, for anyone who wants to know how to eat beans without gas on a vegetarian diet.
The vegetarian bean report is mostly unscientific, and sometimes irreverent, but the information is based on years of knowledge and practice as a vegetarian, and is intended to be helpful. I'm happy to share what I know, because I have the feeling that the beans/gas issue is one that stops quite a few people from continuing a vegetarian diet.
