What To Do If You Didnt Soak Beans Before Cooking?
If you didn’t soak beans before cooking, you can still cook them. However, it will take longer for the beans to cook and become tender. Simply rinse the beans thoroughly under running water and then add them to a pot with enough water to cover them by at least a couple of inches. Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the beans are tender, which can take anywhere from 1 to 3 hours depending on the type and age of the beans.
