Lunch Today

Today is one of those working from home days, which I love! So I was lucky enough to be able to eat my lunch in the sunshine in my backyard with my beautiful cats for company. Lunch was a bean salad, made for me by my amazing girlfriend! It was made from black eyed beans, tomatoes, and cherry tomatoes and coriander, both of which we grew in our vegie garden (which is my current obsession). It was left over from dinner last night which was the bean salad and corn fritters. I really am spoiled! I even managed to take some photos today:


These are two of my many cats, Poti and Lea, napping in the shade. How cute.

Black Eyed Beans

I have been very wary of buying these for a while as they seem so hard to cook. After an hour they are still hard. I understand that they are nuked on entry into NZ. The indian people that talk to me tell me that they can only cook in pressure cooker. Your opinion would be helpful please. Mike

I think you are right,

I think you are right, although I used to cook them myself when I could get them. Apparently organic shops are working on this. For now, try buying precooked ones in a can or precooked Canellini Beans, or even soy beans, taste just as good.
