[quote=Anonymous]I don't have a pressure cooker (will get one!) and could never get beans to cook all the way through in my crock pot - no idea why. This is what I do. Rinse 4-6 cups of dried beans, cover with 4 inches of water, bring to a boil and boil for 3 minutes. Turn off and leave on the stove for awhile (2-3 hours) then turn back on and simmer for 45 minutes. Perfect every time and the extras I freeze in dinner size portions. Also, be sure to buy dry beans from a store that has high turnover - old beans don't cook well.[/quote]
