Black Beans (or any other dry bean)

4 cups dry beans
2 T raw apple cider vinegar
Water to cover by 3 inches

Soak beans in water and vinegar for 24 hours.  It is normal for bubbles to form on the surface of the water.

Drain beans, add to a large pot, cover with water by at least an inch.

Bring to a boil.  Skim foam, then simmer until beans are tender.  Depending on the bean, between 1 and 2 hours.  

Drain cooking liquid and use now, or freeze for use later.

See "Awesome Black Beans" for a really great variation.
