Ingredients
- 1 pound dried beans or desired amount
- water
Instructions
- Rinse beans well and sort through to remove any debris.
- Place beans in a large saucepan.
- Add water to cover 2" above the beans. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Boil for 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat, cover and let sit 60 minutes.
- Drain and discard water. Use as directed in your recipe.
Notes
- Note: This is not a recipe to cook beans, this is a pre-soak and beans will still require cooking after the quick soak method.
- To cook beans after soaking, drain soaking water. Place beans in a large pot and cover with water (add herbs, onion, etc if desired). Simmer on low just until tender.
- Simmering time can range from 45 minutes to 2 ½ hours depending on the variety.
