Silky dried beans have long been an elusive beast in my kitchen. Given my commitment to whole foods and traditional cooking methods, I prefer to use dried beans, but often end up slightly crunchy beans that are not-quite-as-good as those from a can. Luckily, I’ve continued to persevere and am thrilled to announce that I’ve figured it out. This is the *perfect* dry bean recipe and leaves you with creamy, thick, and delicious beans every time.
My recipe has been published on the Mind Body Green website, so click here to check it out!
I have to tell you that this is THE BEST bean recipe I have ever tried-way better than a pressure cooker! I have been using it since it was featured on MIND BODY GREEN. I have even mixed up some of the ingredients depending on what I have on hand or the beans I choose to use. As per your advice, I make a huge pot and use it all week in different ways. Great for a family of 6-well worth the three days and turns out actually easier since every day is minimal effort. Thank you so much-I really appreciate it!
Thank you so much for your kind comment Christie! It absolutely made my day 🙂 And I couldn’t agree more – totally the best way to get creamy beans! Thanks again.
