Beans will cook tender without pre-soaking in 1/3 to 1/2 the time in unsalted water. After they are cooked you can add salt and all the spices to the broth.

Red kidney beans seem to cook faster than pinto beans, even though they're a little larger. Have you ever noticed that? I've never heard the term "whistles." How many minutes are in a "whistle?" Hi Kaustubh,
I’m sorry the cannellini beans didn’t work out. Red kidney beans seem to cook faster than pinto beans, even though they’re a little larger. Have you ever noticed that?
I’ve never heard the term “whistles.” How many minutes are in a “whistle?”

I had done 8-10 whistles in a pressure cooker but it didn't get soft. After this I searched and read your instructions and might get it right the next time I cook these beans. Even red kidney beans get cooked in 3-4 whistles. thanks for your info. Hi, I did cook today with a pressure cooker to make a veg of cannellini beans and they were hard after cooking.

My Presto pressure cooker came with a 15 lb. regulator, so that's all I know to use. Your question reminded me that my grandmother kept the other size regulators. It's too late for me to ask her how she used them. But I can ask you, right? When am I suppose to use the other sizes? Thank you for bringing this to my attention, Rebecca.

Question, your recipe fails to mention what the pressure should be -- 5, 10 or 15? I wasn't sure and ended up placing at 15. Hope this is correct. Please mention this next time. Thanks for the recipe. By the way do you have a recipe for pasta fagule (spelling is wrong I know)? I am cooking your recipe for cannellini beans in the pressure cooker as i type this.

I just found your blog today and I'm so excited. I'm trying to learn more about cooking (I wasn't brought up learning how, so I'm clueless)! I want to cook for my almost-husband and future kids :) Your blog is so straightforward and easy, and it really makes cooking seem less intimidating! I am especially looking for good dinner recipes that don't require an oven. I have one from the 50's that doesn't work well. It can melt things, such as a casserole where everything is pre-cooked can be warmed up in there... but I can't cook meats in there or baked goods or anything like that. Beyond soups and pastas, what else great is there that can be made without an oven? I would love some suggestions or some links to some of your faves! Thank you SO much for keeping this blog! I'm subscribed and will be reading daily! Hi! I just found your blog today and I’m so excited. I’m trying to learn more about cooking (I wasn’t brought up learning how, so I’m clueless)!
