When they are clean, soak in fresh water and the use that soak water to cook the beans. Remember, rajmah (kidney beans) and black beans are toxic and require 10 minutes at a full boil to break down the toxins and render them safe.
The longer you soak them the less gassy beans will be. You can also drain the water after 12 hours, then rinse and re-drain them every 12 hours for 2 to 3 days until the sprouts are as long as the bean. This not only dramatically increases the vitamins in the beans but also removes some of the gas producing qualities.igure about an extra hour of cooking time for beans that are not pre-soaked. Beans should be soaked for at least 6 hours. During this time, the beans will absorb water until they have increased in volume and weight about 3 times. You should add 5 times as much water as dry beans.
