How to Make It
- Rinse uncooked beans. Be sure to pick out any little stones that may be present.
- Add prepared beans to the Instant Pot along with 8 cups water. Let beans sit for 30 minutes to rehydrate. Drain beans and add another 8 cups clean water to them.
- Secure lid on Instant Pot and pressure cook beans on high for 10 minutes. Allow pressure to release naturally. Test beans to make sure they are tender; if not, pressure cook for an additional 5 minutes.
