Gary7 I would be worried about all the vitamins leeching out of the beans if I had them in water that long. But that might be some old health food tale I grew up on and have no basis in fact. As to pressure cookers.. they are too scary for me

What if they exploded?!
I just cooked huge pot of black beans today after soaking them overnight. They were so delicious I was eating them warm right out of the pot, and just had them on tortillas.
J. Allen that is excellent news. I am super happy it is working so well for you, I hope you are finding it fun, tasty and not too difficult?
