| 1. Using a 5 quart pot bring water to a full boil. | 2. Meanwhile, sort out rocks and old beans from bag. Throughly wash beans in cold water until water comes out clear. | 3. When water has come to a full boil add beans, onion, garlic and oil. Cover and allow to cook for 30 minutes. | 4. Check water level (you always want to have enough water just to cover the beans) if it looks like it needs it then add more. Reduce heat to a low simmer and continue to cook for an 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remember to check water level every 30 minutes. | 5. Once beans are fully cooked add salt and allow to simmer 5 minutes. | 6. These beans can easily be mashed to make refried beans. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
