leave a comment »

I always forget so I wanted to write this stuff down. * Note, altitude changes cook times.

Dried Black Beans & Pinto Beans:

  • Sort & Wash Beans in colander under cold water
  • Soak 2 cups of beans with 6 cups of water in a pan overnight (these can be left soaking for up to 2 days in the fridge)

When ready to cook the black beans/pinto beans;

  • cover and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours or until tender
  • Add salt & pepper to taste
