LET’S TALK ABOUT BLACK BEANS! | Jamie Oliver


good morning lovely people so quite a
few meetings and just doing research for
Christmas actually which is just around
the corner we’re talking about black
beans black beans I didn’t know until I
started researching this year for James
everyday superfood and their if not the
highest protein packs being on the
planet absolutely massive so super high
in fiber low in saturated fats so an
amazing swap out for vegans and
vegetarians but also for me is as well
you know swap out and meet dinner and
use beans in a salad
popped like this in a really lovely way
the lovely Ashley who’s taking the
picture hello Ashley he’s gone and made
15 cooked me this lunch which is very
kind because I’m really busy today and
it looks gorgeous it’s really really
worth talking about black beans because
these little these little fellas here
and that’s a really clever little
cooking method because they put it in a
hot pan and they popped it they’ve
listed it which makes the skin crispy
and the sort of inside really kind of
flowery and absorbent when I was a kid I
used to hate chili con carne with kidney
beans I just hated it um but actually if
you blister the skins of the beans and
then fold it through soups stews sauces
salsas
it’s so it’s delicious it’s a next-level
to try that next time you do something
there’s some brilliant micronutrients in
black beans that are just fantastic
result in in just better blood pressure
which is great brilliant for the immune
system nervous system for red blood
cells you know really really good so a
brilliant thing for you guys to buy this
week would be a tin of black beans
unbelievable before I eat my lunch and
get on with my next recipe there’s
someone here who is the king of being
Gennaro Contaldo has just popped up out
of the table just an even hate in Italy
beans are really real
it’s big all kind of a big what’s the
favorite beans in Italy walk and
anything to the lady borlotti beans a
little mint also there’s chickpeas as
well Jake changing bed Lent ek lentil
which is very very very good to know
what my favorite Italian Venus can I
tell you gone don’t feel you know
telling about Delphine it’s on FINA at
Tuscany beans it’s so good is incredible
because in a way is look like almost
like egg beans because it’s all free not
joining Guinea the skin all over the
beans absorb in is a soft you can
actually eat it every egg is not the
hard beans which inside is soft outside
you always get to that little bit of
speed like yeah we don’t solve fee no
you come up to swab and also I solve
delicious and and the thing is guys like
and it depends where you come from in
the world but yeah like when you get
quality beans that have been dried when
you used to cook in from fresh soaking
them overnight in cold water is like
obviously it swells up the skins don’t
break and you just cook them with some
root vegetables
slowlyslowly interestingly I think it’s
fair to say Britain has never really
embraced fully beans maybe maybe we did
before the war but like certainly we
have in the last seven years and baked
beans is all we can get our head off but
when the people from the Mediterranean
come to Britain they think they’re crazy
because there’s butter beans you know
the lovely cannellini beans Bilotti but
there’s so many so embrace your beans
black beans being one of the heroes
right here don’t do what I’m about to
say I went to an Italian wedding once
and I thought I would be really how can
I put it and traditional by taking
instead of confetti get get a little
pocket of beans lovely borlotti beans
