Review: I’m not a fan of canned vegetables. By and large, I find that anything that has sit in a can for longer than is needed to transport it should be considered garbage. Vegetables add to this thought by stewing in still water for days and months on end. Canned vegetables almost always remind me of the dripping frog specimens you receive in biology class. They smell and taste like formaldehyde. Sometimes, I just have to bite bullet though. Like when I don’t have time to boil dehydrated beans in order to make a salad (which is almost always).
I am planning on making a spinach salad tonight which calls for some of the ingredients to be sautéed. Because of the whole miracle of smelly canned foods, I plan on sautéing the hell out of these things beyond what the recipe calls for.
Maybe some day I will have the time to boil my own chick peas. For now, that’s just a pain in the garbanzos.
