How to use
White beans require some preparation before cooking as most beans.
Place the beans in a large bowl and add enough water to cover the beans by 5cms.
Let stand at room temperature for 6 to 12 hours. Drain the beans, rinse 3 times and drain well again.
Place the beans in a large heavy-bottomed soup pot and add enough fresh bottled spring water to cover the beans by 5cms. Bring to a boil and skim any foam that forms at the surface.
