A flavorful and hearty dish featuring Hurst Beans cooked to perfection in a pressure cooker. The combination of aromatic spices and optional smoked meats creates a delicious and satisfying meal.
Ingredients: 1 cup dried Hurst Beans your choice of variety. 4 cups water. 1 onion, diced. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 ham hock or smoked sausage optional. 1 teaspoon salt. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. 1/2 teaspoon paprika. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper adjust to taste. 2 tablespoons olive oil.
Instructions: Rinse the Hurst Beans under cold water and pick out any debris or discolored beans. In the pressure cooker, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions and saut until softened. Add minced garlic and continue to saut for another minute. If using, add ham hock or smoked sausage to the pressure cooker. Add the rinsed Hurst Beans, water, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper to the pressure cooker. Secure the lid on the pressure cooker and set it to high pressure.
