COOKING DRIED BEANS: Before cooking, dried beans must be presoaked in ten times as much water as beans, for a minimum of 4 hours, preferably 8. Drain the beans and place in a large saucepan with cold water (or unsalted broth), to cover by at least 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat and simmer for about 1&1/2 hours or until tender, adding liquid as necessary so that the fully cooked beans are in a nice rich broth. Do not add salt or any acidic liquid or vegetables to uncooked beans or the beans will be tough. To be safe, add all seasonings, including salt, after the beans have softened. If you do not have time to prepare dried beans, canned beans, particularly cannellini beans, kidney beans, and chickpeas, are of high quality and can be used as substitutes.
