Soak the beans overnight in water and a bunch of smash garlic cloves. I use 7 cloves for a 1 lb bag. The next day chop an onion, a green pepper, a carrot and 2 stalks of celery and sweat on low heat with a bay leaf, oregano, cumin, coriander and hot peppers of choice to taste. Add the beans, soaking water and garlic plus enough liquid to cover the beans by a few inches. I use veg stock and a beer. Bring to boil then lower heat and simmer a few hours til beans are soft. If you need to add liquid while its cooking add it. Salt after the beans are soft already and you can put cilantro, scallion or chopped red onion and hot sauce or whatever.
Perfect rice ever time is 2 parts liquid to 1 part rice. Boil water first then add rice and salt and bring back to a boil then lower heat and cover and simmer on low 20 min for white rice, 45 min for brown rice. Turn heat off but do not lift lid for 10 min. Then fluff it and eat it.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1532391 That sounds simular to what I do except I was adding the rice, which i now know is a no no. The only thing, I thought you soak the beans overnight than get rid of the water so you dont fart. That is what I was always told.
