I cook a big amount , like over 3 pounds dry, and the only way that works well is to soak over night. I do 35 minutes cook time on high, with one hour of natural pressure release time. If you use quick release with a fuller pot, it spatters bean material all over the inside of the lid and silicone ring.
Thanks! I was wondering that. 🤔 I'm making half a pound of red Central American beans at 25 minutes and a natural pressure release. Last time i did it, 20 mins, it wasn't fully cooked yet.
When I cooked the red kidney beans for 20 minutes with natural venting they were a little too soft for me. I'm now cooking another batch for 20 minutes and will manually release the steam when they are done so they will be a little firmer. Otherwise, this is the fastest easiest way to cook beans and they taste great all by themselves. So much better than canned beans.
Thank you for this video on the most basic treatment of beans. I needed to use as a basis for my own Red Beans and Rice. I have to laugh at myself, I can make a flawless Chicken Ballotine or Beef Wellington and just about every sauce known to man ... but when it comes back to something as basic as cooking dried beans, I need help! Thank you!
If i can say according to other cooks, when you soak beans over the night, and the next day change the water to fresh one for boiling, it is better. Why ? .... because soak over night, and next day remove that nightly water and rinsing out the beans will remove many toxins form the beans .... Nice to see you cooking, thank you, and i subscribed your channel xx
I think my beans are old as they can out still very hard and I had to put them back in for some more pressure last time. So this time I rinsed them (aka let them sit in water) for the few mins that I prepped the pot and seasoned the water. Also, this time I am using my max model on maximum pressure. Let see how these old beans will come out now!
She did mention that the salt is optional. Instead of salt I will replace one garlic clove instead of the salt. and again I will try it only by putting a small onion into the base of the pot for some flavor then compost that onion.
I can’t cook red kidney beans on stove top without toughing them up 10 minute high heat cook to get rid of harmful enzymes. Is the instant pot pressure cooked my salvation??
@thasneen I used my Instant Pot ultra on high pressure for 30 minutes and they were just right. Not mushy, not hard. I guess some might want more soft. I like a little firm.
It is not “just boiling”, because pressure cooking allows the water to rise above 212°F / 100°C, to around 240°F / 115°C. This increase in temperature, plus the roughly 12psi of pressure, allows the beans to cook much faster than by standard, non-pressurized boiling.
In America we use cups . Ounces. Etc . If you don't understand then don't bother trying to cook using American measuring ratios. Besides you don't have to be rude
A cup is almost the same as 250ml. 😁 I think 250ml is just a drop or two over the cup measure. Remember when people came to America, they had to come with just their most basic stuff. And I don’t think the metric system had been invented yet. So cups it is! 😂
Thank you

I love red beans in chili. Thank you so much. I’ve been intimidated from making dried beans but now I know how. Thank you for this great video.
You are so welcome!

Glad you figured out the perfect cooking setting for firm beans, enjoy!

Very Healthy, Helpful and Convenient way of showing how to cook Red Kidney Beans in my Instant Pot.
Thank You!! 👍
Most welcome, no more canned beans :)

Thank you, this helped me a lot.
Glad it helped!
Thanks so much
Making this now! Thank you :)
Thank you! Happy Holidays!!
Thanks & same to you too 😊
Are these beans dry....you didn't mention that. I want to know, from dry kidney bean to cooked, how long to pressure cook in the Ipot...thanks
Dry red beans, cooking time 20 minutes at high pressure for making very soft beans. If you prefer firm beans, cook for 15 minutes.
This is a great video, very helpful! Subbed and liked!
Thanks
Thank you !
You're welcome!
Thank you! exactly what I was looking for.
Glad I could help!
I can’t use salt during cooking but will season as required to bring ‘em out.
She did mention that the salt is optional. Instead of salt I will replace one garlic clove instead of the salt. and again I will try it only by putting a small onion into the base of the pot for some flavor then compost that onion.
Loved this video !
Thank you!!
How long should you cook canned kidney beans in the instant pot?
Or frozen beans that were previously cook? Thanks!
Cooked canned beans can be pressure cooked for just 3 minutes (at high pressure) in the Instant Pot.
@@thasneen great thanks
Start at 2 min ..
1:43 - start from here
How long do I cook the beans if I presoal them overnight?
15 minutes of high pressure cooking.
I can’t cook red kidney beans on stove top without toughing them up 10 minute high heat cook to get rid of harmful enzymes.
Is the instant pot pressure cooked my salvation??
What about a canned beans, how long you have to cook them?
Canned beans are mostly cooked so you just have to heat them up in saute setting for 5 to 10 minutes.
@@thasneen Thanks for your quick response. :)
Why do you dislike canned beans?
@@amauryaracena she mentions the reasons several times at the beginning of the video
just started my red kidney beans.
Hope it turned out well :)
@@thasneen fine. But Instant Pot needs to re write their manual not user friendly at all. So thank goodness for you!
Why do other videos say 40 minutes for cooking the beans?
40 minutes of high pressure cooking will make the beans mushy, did they use low pressure??? 🤔
@thasneen I used my Instant Pot ultra on high pressure for 30 minutes and they were just right. Not mushy, not hard. I guess some might want more soft. I like a little firm.
Very nice 👌
Thank you 😊
Amazong intro but doesnt own a microphone?
You Are a Very Beautiful Lady! Thank you for Showing Us How to cook beans In Instant Pot!
You are so welcome :)
Like 3
You talk a lot.
im just gonna stick to canned beans
:)
This is just boiling...
People can’t seem to agree on what the right water ratio should be.
I’d rather not have much (or any) liquid left at the end.
You can always drain the water.
It’s not
It is not “just boiling”, because pressure cooking allows the water to rise above 212°F / 100°C, to around 240°F / 115°C. This increase in temperature, plus the roughly 12psi of pressure, allows the beans to cook much faster than by standard, non-pressurized boiling.
Omg you talks so slow 4:39 mins video looks so long
Cups? What is a 'cup' of water? Teacup? Mug? Such silly measurements. Grow up America!!
A cup is equivalent to 8 fluid ounces. No need to be rude; it's easy to look it up.
In America we use cups . Ounces. Etc . If you don't understand then don't bother trying to cook using American measuring ratios. Besides you don't have to be rude
She said cup Not mug nor teacup. You are the one who should grow up l!!

@@SeasidePrincess240ml to a cup.
Thank you
