Guest guest Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 The best beans in the world are from a pressure cooker, all done in 50 mins and the flavor is locked in.

I flash boiled dried black beans following the direction on the bag to use with the ffabulous black bean and rice recipe I got from here... but the beans were crunchy. I timed everything correctly. Is it better to soak overnight? Thanks, Deanne Quote
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Deanne, If you live at a high altitude like I do you, at apx.5,000 ft. above sea level you could cook those beans 'til the cows come home and they would always be " crunchy " . Pre-soaking here is a must. Unless of course you use a pressure cooker like my daughter does. I'm told that some folks at sea level do not have to soak over night.
