🧂 Ingredients

2 16oz bags of dry beans

any type is ok
water to cover beans

Instructions

1 Place beans in a bowl with water. Make sure the water covers the beans and then
some.
2 Cover and leave on counter overnight. 12 hours preferably.
3 The next day, place the beans and the water in a large pot and bring to a boil
over high heat.
4 While it's coming to a boil, stir frequently and remove as much of the foam as
you can while it comes to a boil.
5 Once it's boiling, lower heat to medium and cook until the beans are tender but
not too tender that they are breaking apart.
6 I cooked these beans in about 1 hour and 15 minutes. But depending on the bean
you chose it could be less. So keep checking and checking!
