- How do I cook beans from scratch

Cooking beans from scratch is super easy! First, you’ll want to soak them overnight in plenty of water. This helps them cook faster and makes them easier to digest. The next day, drain and rinse the beans, then put them in a pot and cover them with fresh water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and let them simmer. Depending on the type of beans, it usually takes about 1 to 2 hours. Just check them occasionally until they're nice and tender. You can season them with salt, garlic, or whatever spices you like. Enjoy!
