Ingredients
4 servings- Black beans300g

Directions

Add the ★ seasonings to a pot and bring to a boil. While heating, rinse 300g of black beans thoroughly under water to remove any dirt.

Pour the rinsed black beans into the boiling pot, immediately remove from heat, cover with a lid, and let soak for 8–10 hours.
- 3
Return to heat and bring to a boil over high heat. Watch carefully to prevent boiling over.

Once boiling, reduce heat to very low and simmer covered. Make sure the cooking liquid covers the 300g of black beans; add more water if needed.

When the beans reach your desired tenderness, remove from heat and let cool completely with the lid on.

Simmer for about 3–4 hours total. Adjust timing based on bean variety and your stove's heat intensity.
