How to Make Dried Beans in the Instant Pot: NO SOAKING REQUIRED!!! This is the EASIEST Recipe!

Thank you for your video and the chart! It's invaluable. My black beans did not cook all the way in 30 minutes, and I doubt that they are old since I got them from a reputable heirloom bean company in Northern California one month ago. I think I'm going to pressure cook for another 10 minutes, and then finish them off on the stove if they still aren't quite done.

[@ericchristopher1687]

I've only had my Instant Pot for a month, and already you've become my favorite KZbin presenter on the topic. I especially appreciate two things - that you use the healthiest ingredients (sadly, too many people's recipes rely on unwholesome ingredients, as you know!) and that many if not most of your recipes are made to take advantage of the slow or natural pressure release method. I made your chicken breasts with pineapple juice last night - only adding in a pinch off herbs de Provence - and they turned out great! Thanks for all your tips and recipes!

[@AMindFullMom]

I am so happy you enjoy my recipes and videos Eric! Thanks for sharing!

[@banzaiburger9589]

Very clear and great video. It’s great to have the option not to soak, but for me I try to soak if at all possible (when I remember). Soaking helps the beans to not give you gas and GI issues.

[@AMindFullMom]

Thanks for sharing!

[@lorimav]

Not soaking should be an option only if you forgot to. In reality soaking is so easy. You just add water, a little bit if lemon juice or vinegar, and wait 8-18 hours. It is not so hard but really crucial for health. Yes, it improves digestibility so you experience less gas but beans also contain phytic acid, an organic acid that blocks mineral absorption in the intestinal tract. " Phytic acid is neutralized in as little as 7 hours of soaking in water with small amounts of an acidic medium such as lemon juice or cider vinegar. Soaking also neutralizes enzyme inhibitors ... enzymes which increase the amount of nutrients present - especially the B vitamins." Understandable to use this method on occasion if you forget but if you care about your family's health why not just put those beans in the pot overnight? How long would it take, 1-2 minutes? Our ancestors knew the wisdom of doing so.

[@terrypogue]

Acid like tomato will make the beans need a longer cook time. Salt doesn’t usually effect that but as you pointed out the age of bean is crucial. Rancho Gordos can be trusted especially if you are after an unusual variety

Great recipe but 25 minutes is far too short for soft beans. I tried this and did 25 minutes, and even allowing for two hours of "keep warm" (Zoom meeting) the beans were stable but easily broken into two and not soft. I strongly suggest no shorter than 50 minutes.

I didn’t know dry beans changed over time. Thanks for that tip. Several years ago, I bought a huge bag of pinto beans from Sam’s Club and just held on to them so I’d always have some pinto beans available. But it can be an all day cooker, in a slow cooker, if I want them tender.

[@AMindFullMom]

You would think they last forever--which yes, technically they do. But the cooking time and texture is impacted.

[@escapetherace1943]

they can get extremely tough. I cooked some that were over 5 years old minimum and..... even after 6 hours of simmer (yes 6 hours) and a 24 hour soak they were kinda tough... still ate them. The problem though is they lose all their vitamins within 3 years and most by 2, which is when they begin getting tougher. The protein is still intact though which I guess is what matters the most? For 'survival' I guess a fortified (yuck) grain added like rice in a meal would at the very least keep you alive, and maybe a multivitamin lol.

Hey there! You will want to set the cooking time to the time you need to add ingredients. Once the cooking time has elapsed, allow pressure to release, add the ingredients and set to cook for the remaining time. Keep in mind it will take a bit of time to come to pressure a 2nd time, but not as long as the first time.

Regular pressure cookers actually reach a higher PSI, so the cooking times vary slightly.
