Heat to boiling, let boil 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, cover and set aside for at least one hour, but preferably four hours or more. Discard the soak water. For simple boiled beans, place the soaked, rinsed and drained beans in a large saucepan with fresh hot water. Water level should come to about one inch above the beans. For 2 cups of dry packaged beans, a tablespoon of cooking oil may be added to reduce foaming and boil-overs; olive oil, butter or margarine also can be used for more distinctive flavors. If the water should foam, skim it off once or twice. Boil beans for 10 minutes, then simmer until tender (approximately 1 to 2 hours, depending on the variety). Add seasonings such as garlic, onion, oregano, parsley or thyme during the cooking time, if desired. 1 lbs. - $ 4.25 3 lbs. - $ 11.75 5 lbs. - $ 19.00 10 lbs. - $ 34.40
