Cooking instructions: Soak the beans for 6 hours. Cover with water or stock, bring to the boil and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes until the beans are soft. Add more water if needed.
Notes on Cooking Dried Pulses: Cooking times for dried pulses will be longer at higher altitudes and when cooking with hard water or older pulses. Adding bicarbonate of soda during soaking and/or cooking will soften the pulses and reduce the cooking time.
Cooked pulses can be used immediately or frozen for later use.
