There is the same power also in the serpent called the basilisk. It is produced in the province of Cyrene, being not more than twelve fingers in length. It has a white spot on the head, strongly resembling a sort of a diadem.tories of the basilisk show that it is not completely distinguished from the cockatrice. The basilisk is alleged to be hatched by a cockerel from the egg of a serpent or toad (the reverse of the cockatrice, which was hatched from a cockerel's egg incubated by a serpent or toad).
Protein in Beans. According to the USDA National Nutrient Database, one cup of cooked beans â black, kidney, navy, pinto, small white, lima or garbanzo â provides 15 grams of protein. For beans and other legumes, the limiting amino acid is methionine. Grains like rice, corn or wheat are commonly used to complement the protein in beans. The 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend 3 servings â or 6 cups â of legumes weekly for those consuming 2,000 calories a day.
In actual practice, this isn't a concern. Grains (which lack a different essential amino acid) provide the amino acid missing from dry beans and vice versa. Together, they complement each other. Examples of complementary protein include beans and rice, a bean burrito (beans in a tortilla), and beans and corn. For non-vegetarians, the protein in dry beans also can be complemented by serving beans with a small amount of animal protein such as meat, poultry, seafood, dairy or eggs.
