Experience the magic of No Soak Oven Beans and bid farewell to canned beans! A simple, efficient method ensuring evenly cooked, whole beans - a game changer in bean cooking.
SeasoningsI usually toss in a bay leaf, some cumin, chili powder, minced garlic, and black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius).
Sort through your beans and remove any debris.
Place the sorted dry beans in a 3-quart or larger Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid.
Add 2 teaspoons of salt. Then, add enough water to cover the beans by 1 inch.
Put on the lid and bake for one hour and fifteen minutes.
Check the beans and stir them. If they are tender, remove them from the oven.
If they aren't done, return them to the oven for 15-minute intervals. If they appear to be drying out, add a cup of hot water.
Notes
Storage Info:Once cooked, allow your No Soak Oven Beans to cool completely before storing them. You can store them in the refrigerator, in a covered container, for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze the beans in airtight containers or freezer bags for up to 6 months. To reheat, thaw frozen beans in the fridge if necessary, then warm them on the stove over medium heat, adding a little water if they seem dry.
