- Soak the beans overnight or for 6-8 hours.
- Rinse and drain the beans once they have soaked.
- Bring beans to the boil, skimming off any foam from the top.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and allow the beans to cook for 1 to 1.5 hours or until tender.
- Once you are happy with their “tenderness” drain and rinse in cool water. This will make shelling them easier.
