  1. Soaking dried beans cuts down cooking time considerably. To Soak: Per 1 cup dried beans, add 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon salt to pressure cooker. Seal pressure cooker and place over high heat to boil. **(Be sure to follow manufacturer’s directions.) Once steam starts to escape, using a kitchen timer, pressure cook for 4 minutes. After 4 minutes, slowly lower heat until very little steam is heard. Manually release pressure, using valve, making sure not to have fingers or hand over steam.
