Which type of bean is not actually a bean?
Correct answer: Castor
BurnedHypogriff879
dried beans take at least 2 hours to cook, not 10 minutes
charliesdaughter
BurnedHypogriff879, always soak dry beans overnight in cold, salted water. this speeds up the cooking time.

I remember when The Little Rascals had to take Castor Oil.

Garbanzo beans aka chick peas are not a bean, but they are a pulse,so question/ answer is wrong

LolaB, My Mum would line us up on a Sunday night & give us a teaspoon of cod liver oil followed by a tablespoon of molasses which was supposed to take the bad taste away
Ktkk
BurnedHypogriff879,
I think it’s 10 min in a hard boil & then however much longer time it takes at a steady simmer.
meka
SOS, Me too but it was a tablespoon of both. I can still taste it....

MALICE, and Hummus is traditionally made from garbanzos.
PerkyLin
Player #1910067, Garbanzo beans or chickpeas ARE beans or legumes.
Ken
the explanation does say Raw or uncooked.10 min. for raw bean sounds about right.
arohanui
even in a pressure cooker they take 20 minutes, and that's after long soaking.
Bob
BurnedHypogriff879, soak them for a day before cooking. If you soak them longer, they will sprout.

I've heard of castor oil, of course, but didn't know it came from a bean. I haven't heard of a Castor bean, but answered correctly because I knew the other 3.
Mary
BurnedHypogriff879, they are only speaking if the first five minutes once coming to the boil lower temperature and cook slowly fir at least 2 hours.

Eccles, actually the organ was named after the bean, being a legume it was thought that if the organ was named after the bean then the organs we find in today's churches would benefit from the wind the beans provide, hence making the instrument louder and the praise we give god would be elevated.

Nesta, an organ is a wind instrument, usualy seen in places of Christian worship like a church, cathedral or an abby.

charliesdaughter, Iceland?

Nesta, it's referring to the red bean called a kidney bean.....

Birdiemom, I should have known this. I just read a fiction book that had the villain using ricin to kill.

This one got me .. haha I knew about the poisonous qualities of the castor plant seed but they are shaped similarly to a spotty-splotchy kidney bean. So lol darn it answered wrong coz it’s about the beans edibility & not the shape or type of seed haha.
Birdiemom
Found a castor bean plant in my back yard and destroyed it. Always wondered if the previous owner knew what it was...she was a recent divorcee, and it wasn't hard to imagine why.
Birdiemom
BurnedHypogriff879, consider the source...a lot of misinformation comes out in that rag.

presco2201, Never thought of that, will try it next time I cook dry beans!😄
Eccles
Dora_Dj, yes, the kidney bean is named so because it looks like a kidney (the organ).
