Cooking tips:1) cooking black beans and putting nails is a common method in Japan. It is said that the black beans cooked with nails will be more black and mellow, and rich in iron. I didn't put them last time. Today I tried to put two nails. I feel the color is really much darker than the last time. It seems that the old tradition of any country must have its own reason. 2) According to personal taste and preference. After the black beans are cooked, add 2 spoonfuls of honey. Cook for a few minutes over a small fire. The black beans will be brighter. With more honey, the taste of the beans will be richer. 3） Like to eat very cooked soft beans. When cooking, you can also add the right amount of baking soda. That will cook worse. 4) The cooked black beans can also be used for secondary processing. They can be used for other dishes. For example, sauteed black beans with snow vegetables are delicious and also good for preservation. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
