How to Cook

Rinse the dried beans and remove any debris. For best texture, soak them in plenty of water for 6–8 hours or overnight, then drain.

Simmer the soaked beans in fresh water for 1–1.5 hours until tender, adding salt near the end. Their meaty bite holds up well in slow-cooked and braised dishes.
