The night before you want to make the meal, soak the beans. Give them a quick once over, removing any debris or stones, rinse them once or twice, and then leave them to soak in a good amount of water overnight. The next day, you’ll notice the beans have increased in size considerably. Rinse them a few times, and then it’s time to cook them. The easiest and quickest way to do this is in a pressure cooker. You can also cook them in a regular pot, it will just take much much longer.
