## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is a refund a possibility? I am so  disappointed with this product.  I am sorry but yours is so bitter even after a long soak in the brine.**
A: As a customer, I can't speak to refunds...but my experience is that these need a soak that is days / weeks, with multiple changes of the water, before they are palatable. However, once adequately soaked, they are a quite acceptable keto substitute for a variety of bean dishes. We soak large batches, divide them into recipe-sized portions, and store them in brine for long-term use.

**Q: What is the country of origin?**
A: The listing says “Product of Chile” right at the top

**Q: There are three main types of lupini beans:  lupinus albus; lupinus mutabilis; lupinus hirsutus.  which are these?**
A: The bag says Premium Lupini Beans 2 lbs. but nothing else. I’ve ground them and they make a yellow flour, hope this helps you.

**Q: What is the fiber content per serving- and how long should I soak them?**
A: I do not have the packaging for them to look at fiber content. But here is the main recipe we use.

Pick over beans to remove any debris. Soak overnight, drain and rinse. Cover by several inches with fresh water and simmer for an hour.
Drain, rinse well, and cover with salted water (about 1 tablespoon per quart of water).  Refrigerate.
Repeat this process every day for 5 days, or until the soaking brine is no longer bitter.
Beans will keep for weeks, covered with lightly salted water and refrigerated.
To serve as a snack, drain desired quantity of beans, drizzle with olive oil and freshly ground black pepper.

    These are A LOT OF WORK!
  

*by S***Z on Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2023*

I'm giving it 5 stars because I did, in fact receive a bag of dried lupini beans just like I ordered.These are no ordinary beans, my friend. These take time and patience, and then more time and patience.  You must first soak these for 24 hours. Then boil for 2 hours, let cool, drain the water, and soak in salt water FOR 5 DAYS!  It is imperative to change the salt water 2 to 3 times per day so they don't smell like sulphuric vomit.These beans are TOXIC without taking these steps. They are high in extremely bitter alkaloids that need leached out by the salt water.Once you finally get the beans edible,  there is yet another step. The outside skin of the beans is pretty tough, so you need to get pop those off....every bean. THEN you can brine them in a jar and hopefully, if you are still alive, eat them.

    Do not recommend:  black mold/mildew spots outside and inside.
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2024*

I love lupini beans / chochos.  I had them for the first time in an airline snack box, and I was hooked - they are delicious and PACKED with protein and fiber.  The prepared ones are expensive, so I decided to make my own.  This is the second brand I've tried, and I do NOT recommend it, because SO MANY of them were bad.Lots of them were brown and cracked.  A lot more had gross black mold/mildew spots.  I cook dry beans all the time, and I'm used to having to throw some away, but I was shocked at how many I had to discard.  After soaking, I found even more with black spots under the skin.  Then I found even more after cooking.  I didn't count how many I had to throw away, but it was A LOT.I also think it was irresponsible for the brand to not include cooking instructions on the package, since lupini beans can be toxic if not prepared correctly.I still recommend lupini beans (just not this brand!), but be aware:- The preparation is a lot of work:  you need to soak them for a full 24 hours, boil for 1-2 hours, then soak in salt water, changing it twice a day, until they no longer taste bitter, which is how you know they are safe to eat.  (For me, that usually takes 5-7 days.)  If you don't want to deal, you can buy them in jars or snack packets, but that's a lot more expensive.- Like any high-fiber food, they can cause bloating and gas if you're not used to it.  Take it slowly, and/or get some Beano.- The skin is edible but tough, so most people discard it as they eat or during the brining phase.  I don't mind, so I just eat it.- They are good plain, but I especially love them with some combination of cumin, garlic, lemon, and olive oil.
