How to choose red beans
- Choose bright red beans that are not infested and do not show signs of mold or unpleasant odors.
- Choose beans of moderate size so that after cooking, the beans achieve the right softness and delicious nutty taste.
- Avoid selecting overly large beans, as these tend to be less tasty, lower in nutrients compared to smaller beans, and often create a slight astringent taste when eaten.
