Step 1

In a bowl, clean beans and remove any rocks.

Step 2

Once cleaned, fill the bowl with enough water to cover the beans and let them soak overnight or a minimum of 4-6 hours.

Step 3

After soaking, rinse thoroughly.

Step 4

In your olla boil 24 ounces of water.

Step 5

Once warm, add the garlic, onion, and beans. Do NOT add salt until the end.

Step 6

Once at a boil, lower the temperature for a simmer. Check on the beans periodically and stir. Make sure water is always covering the beans. If you need to add more water, only add warm water.

Step 7

After an hour check the beans, if they are still hard cook for another 30 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally.

Step 8

Cook until your beans are soft enough to enjoy but still firm enough to hold their shape.

Step 9

Add salt to taste.

Step 10

If you make a large batch you can freeze the remaining beans for up to 2 months.
