Cooking instructions

1. Soak 1 lb of dried pinto beans in a large amount of water. Clean out any split beans. Let them soak for 8 hours at room temperature.
2. After soaking, drain and rinse them under cold water.
3. Place the beans in a large pot and add 10 cups of water. Bring the water to a boil.
4. Reduce the heat, cover the pot and let the beans simmer for 2 to 2.5 hours until the beans are cooked through and a little firm.
5. Cook a little longer if you like more tender beans.
