I make some soup that I slow cook for two days lots a small cut pieces beef -and cans of vegetables .
I decided to make some that included red pinto bean -I washed them soaked them overnight -poured the soak water away boiled them according to the directions on the bag. Then put them in with the vegetable soup that had been cooking for a day.
At the end of day two -I tasted it --the pinto beans turned very firm -went to work today -day three cooking -pinto's still hard ?
How is it possible that cooking them three days and they're still hard .
I'm going to cook them until they are soft any idea how many days weeks it will take ?
