Cook Dry Beans in 3 Easy Steps:
❁ Sort and Rinse - Sort to remove stones, seeds or damaged beans. Rinse well to remove dust.
❁ Although each type of bean is slightly different, you can swap one type for another in most recipes. Use what you have or buy what is cheapest or on sale.
❁ You can replace 1 pound of meat with 2 cups of cooked beans in many recipes.
❁ Dried and canned beans are great food to keep on hand. You may want to stock up when they are on sale.
❁ Dried beans are usually cheaper than canned beans but take longer to cook. Canned beans are fully cooked and ready to use cold or heated.
