Hello, black beans can be steamed and need to be soaked. The longer the soaking time, the faster the beans will cook. It takes about one night. Then add water to the beans until they are about 1-2 cm deep. Put them into a steamer and steam them over high heat for 20-30 minutes after opening the pot. If you have a pressure cooker, you can quickly save time by pouring the beans and water directly into the pot and pressing for 15-20 minutes. I hope it is useful to you and I hope you will adopt it~
