Preparation

  1. Soak the dried beans for 8 hours or overnight in a bowl with 4 cups of water.

  3. Once done, drain and transfer the beans to a bowl.
  4. Drain, rinse and cover with hot water as often as you can, every 4-6 hours for about 2-3 days, until the bitter taste of the beans is gone.
  5. Once the bitter taste of the beans is gone, place them into a jar with water and the two tablespoons of salt.
  6. Store them in the jars with the brine for 2-3 days then serve.

Ellie, if the author doesn’t mention, then it should be just regular table salt.

Easy to follow recipe 🙂 I made about three weeks ago and totally forgot about them. They've been sat marinating in their jars for around 3 weeks, unrefrigerated. Will they be safe to eat?

Yes, they should be fine if the jars were tightly sealed. Try a few first, however once you open a jar, keep it refrigerated for up to 5 days only.

I live in Montreal. Where can I get these beans dry? I've been to Portuguese stores but they only have them already made in jars.
