Cowpea Salad Recipe Preparation
Add plenty of water in the pot and add 1 spoon of salt and boil the kidney beans for 30-40 minutes until they are soft. If the boiling water turns black, pour some of the water and add a new one and continue boiling. The reason we do this is because it stains the kidney beans, its flavor is not affected, but we do not want it to have an appetizing appearance. After the kidney beans are boiled, drain and leave to cool.
