Soaking Beans

Click on the link below...
Ok for my raw readers you can soak and sprout the beans...you can find soaking and sprouting charts in many books including "Living on Live Food" by  Alissa Cohen.
For my macro readers soak beans before cooking (also I just bought a pressure cooker at the request of my macrobiotics counsellor)  2 great benefits of using a pressure cooker:
1) cooks tons faster! 5-10 minutes for beans (you still have to soak them overnight before hand)
2) use less water and the nutrients stay locked in the pot

Also read more benefits below....
