Instructions

  1. Rinse and sort beans well. Small rocks and foreign debris from the fields are common finds in a bag of beans.
  2. Cover beans in a large pot with cool water. Soak beans 8 hours to overnight.
  3. Drain beans.
  4. Add fresh water, to cover beans. Add salt.
  5. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Beans should be very plump.
  6. Add salt to jars. Fill warm jars with beans. Add cooking liquid to cover, leaving 1″ head space.
  7. Remove any air bubbles with non metallic tool. I use a chopstick.
  8. Wipe rims clean with damp towel. Apply lids. Affix bands. Tighten fingertip tight.
  9. Prepare pressure canner according to manufacturer’s recommendations and heat water. Load jars into canner.
  10. Place lid on canner securely according to manufacturer’s recommendations. Process jars allotted amount time at allotted pressure for your altitude. See graph below.
  11. Once your processing time has passed, remove pot from heat. Allow it to cool naturally and release pressure.
  12. After pressure has released, open canner carefully. Remove jars and place them on a kitchen towel on the counter for 24 hours.
  13. Check seals. Press down in the center of the lid. If it flexes that jar did not seal and must be refrigerated or reprocessed with a new lid, if desired. Use up any refrigerated beans within 3 days.
  14. For quart jars, see notes.

Notes

  • For quart jars, use 5 pounds of dried beans to make 7 quarts of canned beans. Process for the allotted times below.
  • It is believed that soaking the beans will remove some of the indigestible starches that cause gas.
  • Process pints 75 minutes at 11 pounds of pressure for dial gauge canning pot. Adjust time for altitude.
  • Process quarts 90 minutes at 11 pounds of pressure for dial gauge canning pot. Adjust time for altitude.
  • For weighted gauge, process pints 75 minutes, adjusting for altitude. Process quarts 90 minutes at 15 pounds, adjusting time for altitude.
