Pro tip, if you have access to a stove and several hours of free time to spare for cooking-- dry beans are super cheap!
Extra pro tip: put them in a bowl or pan of boiling water the night before to make them cook quicker the next day. Extra extra pro tip put bicarbonate of soda in the water to make them cook quicker.
You can also soak them in the fridge for 24 hours to rehydrate them if you want a more passive way to prep them.
It's truuuuee. I actually cooked my first pot of dry beans in a crock pot over the course of like 8 hours the other week, and it was very satisfying.
An InstantPot (or other pressure cooker) can cut that time down quite a bit. I set mine on 40 minutes, but it takes a little while to get up to temp/pressure at the start and at least 15 minutes to slow/natural release the pressure at the end.
Still, dry beans to food in about an hour is great! Also much easier to control your sodium intake, it that's a concern.
Not sure what I would do or how I made it before I got my Instant pot. Amazing little kitchen gadget.
Getting an Instant Pot was my game changer for dry beans.
