And don’t forget that if you live at high altitude like I do (7,000 ft) you will also need to cook the beans in a pressure cooker.

In reply to Tara. Hi Tara! You'll want to simmer the pot uncovered. If you find the liquid is evaporating too much, you could add more and then partially cover—but we've never needed to do that. When the beans are finished, they should still have a good bit of flavorful cooking liquid with them!

Should the pot simmer covered or uncovered?

These are excellent and quite easy to make. I’ve cooked numerous batches of homemade black beans and had never gotten the flavor exactly perfect until I tried this recipe.

These are delicious and so simple to make. I’ve made many batches of homemade black beans and never got the flavor just quite right until this recipe. This will be my go to for black beans from now on. Thank you!!

Just made these and they are great! The beans were tender and flavorful…so much better than canned. Thank you for sharing!

In reply to Mikayla Flanders. So sorry about that - we were having some technical difficulties. The recipe should be there now!

Hello! A friend made these beans for me and they were the best! Sadly though, every time I look it up (including now) the recipe doesn’t show up. 🙁 Do you think you could copy and paste the recipe and send it to me so I can see it?

In reply to z. Yup! Cumin is one of those spices where it takes a lot to make an impact. :)
