Instructions
Soak Your Beans
- I use the "quick method" of putting the beans in a saucepan, covering them with water, bring it to a boil, turn off the heat, cover and let soak for 2 hours, then put them in the fridge for 4 hours. I then pour then into a colander and rinse with cool water.
- Put all ingredients into your chosen cooker and cook…
For Slow Cooker
- Cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours.
For Pressure Cooker
- Cook on High for 45 minutes then test them. If the beans are not soft enough to your taste, cook on Low for an additional 30 minutes.
Notes
Cooking time in either method will depend on how soft your beans are after soaking.
