1. Spread the beans on the countertop to check for stones and spoiled grains 2. Wash and rinse the beans twice with fresh clean water. 3. Soak the beans for at least 12 hours, changing the water every 4 hours. If you can. 4. Boil the beans on the stove 3 times for about 5 minutes each, rinsing beans and pot each time. This removes the foam (oligosaccharides) 5. Cook the beans with fresh water and add: cardamom, fennel seeds, rosmery, carom seeds (Ajwain seeds), bay leaves and ginger. Place all these seeds in a tea bag for easy removal after cooking. 6. Add all the spices you like such as garlic, chile, cummin, etc. 7. Cook the beans until tender.
