This is a shortcut for making navy beans, from scratch, instead of relying on canned beans which may be loaded with salt or other undesirable ingredients. There is no need to soak the beans overnight and these cook in about 45 minutes thanks to the magic of pressure cookery.

Ingredients

6 cups water
1 cup dried navy beans, picked over and rinsed
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 bay leaf

Tips:

When cooking navy beans in a pressure cooker, use a 1:2 ratio of beans to liquid. This will ensure that the beans are cooked evenly and that there is enough liquid to prevent them from burning.
Soak the beans overnight before cooking them. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
Add salt to the cooking liquid to help flavor the beans. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic, onion, or thyme.
Cook the beans on high pressure for the amount of time specified in the recipe. Once the cooking time is complete, let the pressure cooker cool down naturally for 10 minutes before releasing the pressure.
Drain the beans and rinse them with cold water before serving.

Conclusion:

Cooking navy beans in a pressure cooker is a quick and easy way to make a delicious and nutritious meal. By following these tips, you can ensure that your beans are cooked perfectly every time. Serve them as a side dish, in a soup or salad, or use them to make a main course. Enjoy!
