When the dry ice is placed on the cooker it will explode, unless the temperature of the cooker is at a low degree.
I usually start with 2 cups of dried beans and cook them in a crock pot (slow cooker). If they were not pre-soaked it will take about 5 hours maybe more. Just make sure there is plenty of liquid on them for they will soak it up.
Many dried beans must be soaked overnight in cold water prior to cooking. After soaking, the beans can be cooked in boiling water. If the beans fall apart, you are cooking them too long.
Fill the cooker container with the dry rice and water. Then strain it and put it in the cooker and set to cook. once its done set it to warm.
six pounds of dry beans
Keep it scrupulously clean and don't let the gasket dry out.
Any dry bean when cooked will swell,which increases in size.
I always find that dry beans swell to about twice their dry size so I would say one cup dry = two cups cooked - but this is not a definitive answer (I am just an amateur cook)
You probably did not have enough water to cover them in the soaking or cooking stage or both. If you use too little water when soaking overnight then as the water is absorbed those on top will be out of the water. When cooking also you have to make sure there is enough water to cover the beans Using a pressure cooker greatly reduces the time to cook pre-soaked kidney beans. Instead of the 1- 1 1/2 hours it only takes 10 minutes. However it is not advised to pressure cook fava beans or lima beans. Properly cooked kidney beans have a "bite" (al dente) -- so they are softer on the inside with a little bite on the outside. WARNING Undercooked beans can be toxic as beans conatain a natural insecticide called phytohaemagglutinin. Red kidney beans have the highest level of phytohaemagglutinin of all beans. This is broken down in cooking. And you must drain away the water used for soaking and cooking. Eating undercooked beans usually results in abdominal pain and can also lead to diarrhoea and in some uncommon cases, hospitalization. However, recovery is usually quick.
If you store the beans in an air tight container, they can stay good for years. Dried beans are a good staple to have in your diet. Keep them dry until ready to cook.
