Tips on How to Cook Dried Borlotti Beans:

Dried borlotti beans require soaking before cooking. Here's how to best prepare them:

1. Soaking: Rinse the beans thoroughly under running water. Immerse them in plenty of cold water for at least 8-12 hours (ideally overnight). A teaspoon of baking soda in the water can help soften the beans and reduce cooking time.
2. Draining and Rinsing: Drain the beans and rinse them again under running water.
3. Cooking time: Place the beans in a large pot and cover with cold water (the water should be at least 5cm above the beans). Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 1-1,5 hours, or until the beans are tender. Add salt only at the end of cooking to prevent the skin from hardening.
4. Tips: For a richer flavor, you can add herbs such as bay leaves, rosemary, sage or a clove of garlic during cooking.
