Notes
If you’re using canned beans, use (1) 15 1/2 oz can of white beans.
If you’re using dried beans, soak about 3/4 cups of dried beans in water overnight.(I always soak more and what I don’t use, I freeze after cooking.)
In the morning, drain and rinse. Add enough water to cover and bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer and cook for about 1 hour or more. You want them to be very soft.
