SLOW-COOKER BEANS



Slow-Cooker Beans image

The key to tender, not-mushy beans is to cook them at the barest simmer, which means they're perfect candidates for the slow cooker. And the same principles for cooking beans on the stovetop apply: Skip soaking the beans; use flavorings to infuse the beans and the bean-cooking liquid; and salt before and after cooking. You can follow this formula for almost any dried bean, but know that the cook time will vary based on the age and type of bean, as well as the size and strength of your slow cooker. Start checking at the six-hour mark to see how quickly your beans are cooking. Keep flavorings in fairly large pieces, as the long cook time could turn smaller bits to mush.

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     beans

Time 10h

Yield About 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound dried beans (except red kidney beans; see Tip)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
Optional flavorings (see Tip)

Steps:

  • In a 5-quart or larger slow cooker, add the beans, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and your selection of flavorings. Add water to cover 2 inches above the beans, then cook on low until tender, 8 to 10 hours. To test for doneness, taste more than one bean to ensure they're all cooked through; they should flatten without much effort when pressed between your fingers. (If you plan to eat your beans cold, cook them a bit past tender, as they'll firm as they cool.) Season to taste with salt.
  • Let cool slightly, then eat right away or store beans in their liquid in an airtight container for up to a week in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer.

Tips for Making Slow Cooker Homemade Beans:

  • Choose the right beans. Different types of beans have different cooking times. For best results, use beans that are specifically designed for slow cooker cooking, such as pinto beans, black beans, or kidney beans.
  • Soak your beans overnight. Soaking the beans overnight will help them cook more evenly and quickly. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
  • Use a slow cooker with a removable liner. This will make it easier to clean up after cooking.
  • Add plenty of liquid. Beans need a lot of liquid to cook properly. Add enough water or broth to cover the beans by at least 2 inches.
  • Season your beans. Add your favorite seasonings to the slow cooker along with the beans. Common seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and chili powder.
  • Cook the beans on low for 8-10 hours. The cooking time will vary depending on the type of beans you are using. Check the beans regularly to make sure they are cooked through.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker homemade beans are a delicious and easy way to enjoy this healthy and versatile food. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a delicious pot of beans ready in no time. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give slow cooker homemade beans a try. You won't be disappointed!
