Notes
- Beans: I used adzuki beans, but black-eyed peas would work just as well in this soup. You could also cook the beans in the instant pot. Pressure cook for 7 minutes at high pressure in the instant pot. Then, use them in this recipe.
- Canned beans: You can use canned beans if you prefer. Drain and rinse them before adding directly to the soup, skipping the initial boiling step.
