Haricot Beans
Ingredients
Directions
Soak the dried haricot beans in plenty of cold water for several hours.
Drain the beans and place them in a saucepan with fresh cold water.
Simmer gently until the beans are tender.
Store any unused beans in a dry place, but use within twelve months to avoid mustiness.
