Notes
- If you didn’t soak your beans overnight, you can use the quick soak method: Cover beans with water and bring up to a boil. Cover and turn off the heat and let soak for 1 hour. Proceed with recipe as written.
- You can substitute 3-4 cans of beans in place of the dried beans. Reduce the water to 5 cups and only simmer for 30 minutes (or more if desired).
