How Canned Beans Are Made - The Cheapest Superfood Nobody Thinks About

Canned beans may be the cheapest protein on the shelf, but the process behind them is more precise than most people realize. In this episode of THE PROCESS, we reveal how canned beans are made, from dry bean sorting, soaking, blanching, brine filling, vacuum sealing, retort cooking, cooling, and shelf-stable canning to the machines that scan every single bean in milliseconds. We also explain why canned beans may cause less gas than home-cooked beans, how beans became one of the oldest farmed foods on Earth, and why the liquid inside a chickpea can became known as aquafaba. One dollar, years of shelf life, and more history than almost anything in your pantry. 🌟CHAPTERS: 00:00 Why Canned Beans Are the Cheapest Superfood 00:54 Why Beans Are Now Considered Protein 01:40 How Canned Beans Are Made 04:38 The 10,000-Year History of Beans 06:20 Why Canned Beans May Be Better Than Dried Beans 07:03 How to Use Canned Beans the Right Way 08:13 Final Thought: The Dollar Can Full of Protein If you are the owner or if you want to be featured please contact us at: [email protected].
