Frequently Asked Questions

Do we need to soak the beans in water?

I like soaking the beans in water for 12 – 24 hours. This makes the beans easier and quicker to cook.

Rinse the beans well before cooking. Skim off the foam that forms on top as the beans cook.

Can I substitute ham hock?

You can simply add in some pieces of cooked ham (around 2 cups worth) if you do not have ham or pork hock to flavor the beans.
