Air fryer roasted dried beans

Overview

When I used to go out for a late-night snack, my favorite thing was baked beans. Later, after I bought my own oven, I tried roasting dried beans in the oven. I tried it in the air fryer today and the effect was similar. It's just that the taste is a little lighter this time. It is recommended that the dried tofu be soaked in salt water for half an hour and then boiled for a few minutes, so that the flavor can be absorbed in advance. The dried tofu is already half-cooked and can be easily roasted. If the raw dried beans are grilled directly, the outside will be very burnt, but the inside may be undercooked and flavorless.

First, to remove the beany smell, and second, to add some flavor first. Because the dried tofu today was thin, it was not cooked. It is recommended to boil it in salt water for a few minutes.

You can also bake it for 5 minutes first, then sprinkle with seasonings and bake it for an hour or two. Temperature and time are for reference.
