When buying mung beans, try to choose fresh mung beans with good quality and avoid buying greasy, spoiled and moldy mung beans. Soaking mung beans in advance can reduce the cooking time and make mung beans easier to boil. When cooking mung beans, do not dry them, but add more water, which can reduce the uneven heating and inconsistent cooking time of mung beans.
Use slow fire when cooking mung beans, so that mung beans can be heated evenly and the probability of boiling and producing sand can be reduced. Adding a small amount of vinegar to mung beans during cooking can make mung beans easier to boil and reduce the probability of sand production.
