Nah you're good. This is a meme from the discord server this lemmy comm is for. Whatever works is fine we just think that beans taste better and cook more consistently when soaked and now it is a thing we do/say 🤷

Avoid metal stuff while soaking and don't add salt before they're cooked.
It can harden the hull.
You may add some sodium bicarbonat to soften the hull but you need to experiment with the cooking time.
A pressure cooker is nice but you either need to calculate in the time it needs till you can open the pot.
Or you take the easy route and cook them till they're done and you terminate the cooking process by cooling the pot in water.

Am I doing it wrong by just rinsing and throwing them in an instant pot for 30 minutes? I know some beans (red?) require soaking to remove toxins, but I just avoid those out of laziness.
