sorry guys! I havent been on in awhile. the ones I bought were canned and so salty I.couldnt stand them.
But search for Lupini beans on amazon, just bought the dry beans.
On another note, my doc prescribed me with a testosterone supplement and the fine print says if any got on a pre-puberty boy it would over-enlarge his genitals. So I wonder how adult men can stimulate those same processes.
Here is how you prepare the beans.
1) Pick them over to remove any debris
2) Rinse them well in cool water
3) Place them in a large pot of water that you would drink.
4) Bring them to a gentle boil.'
5) As soon as the water boils, turn off the flame, and allow them to cool in the water.
6) When the water cools, rinse the beans again in cool water.
7) Fill a large pot or container with cool drinking water, and place the beans in as well to soak. Cover and keep at room temperature.
8) Rinse and change the water for fresh drinking water twice each day for nine days. Cover and keep at room temperature
9) On the tenth day, put the beans in fresh drinking water that has been liberally salted with sea salt or kosher salt. The water should taste salty - up to as salty as the ocean, but at least as salty as good soup. This last step flavors the beans, and helps preserve them. Allow them to soak in the salt water for one day.
10) Now they are ready to eat, and you may store them in jars or container with a little of the salt water in the refrigerator. Press beans through your thumb and index finger to pop them out of their skins, and into your mouth one by one. Enjoy.
Note: If you don't follow these steps with the dried Lupini, they will be inedibly bitter. The ones you find in the jars are ok too. They are quicker, but they are more expensive of course. To make them tast better ( and less salty), drain out the liquid from the jar. Refill with fresh drinking water. Allow the beans to soak in the fresh water overnight. The next day, they should be of a palatable salinity, and will have assumed a better texture. I can't tell you if they will make your balls bigger, but they are my favorite snack in any case.
