Soaking pinto beans before you cook them speeds up cookign time and allows some of the gas to escape. When soaking beans the water should be change the water several time, or when it begins to turn dark.

Are dark pinto beans better then light colored?

No. It has to do with the seed variety and the growing region in which they are grown. Traditionally pinto beans grown in Mexico are lighter in color. Beans grown in Colorado and the Dakotas are a darker variety. Same flavor just a different color. ;)


What happens to dried beans when you soak them?

I'm not quite sure what you mean by if soaked beans are spoiled. If you soaked them and forgot about them they are probably fine unless they look weird, smell bad or have mold. If you mean how to tell if they are old, I would just cook them. If they don't soften they are old.


Are pinto beans bad for dogs?

Yes, pinto beans are safe for dogs to eat in moderation. They are a good source of protein and fiber for dogs, but should be cooked and not seasoned with any harmful ingredients like onions or garlic. Overfeeding beans to dogs can cause digestive issues, so it's best to give them in small amounts as an occasional treat.

When preparing dried beans they should be?

Dry beans should be soaked in water for at least 12 hours and more appropriately, 24-hours, before use. It's best to separate the dry beans first - removing any that are deformed or bad or not even beans... just a casual scan of them is fine. Then rinse the beans. Then soak the beans and change the water about every 4-8 hours. Use salted water. This will remove the toxins that cause flatulence (farting) - and also soften the beans up so they are easier to cook. Nobody likes grainy, mealy beans.
