Once beans are done it's time to add your spices. I prefer cumin, salt, chili pepper, garlic, and a little onion powder.

Home-made Black Beans
Basically, soak 2-3 cups black beans for about an hour and drain well. Empty into a pressure cooker with plenty of water (6-8 cups or more). I had a sister who once let her pressure cooker run out of water and the top exploded off! It really damaged her kitchen so really the more water the better. Cook on high until steam is steady then reduce temperature to low. Let cook for about 30-45 minutes.

To keep beans longer and for your little ones. I put my beans in an ice cube tray then cover them with the bean juice. Covering with liquid helps prevent freezer burn. After thawed these are perfect for making "refried beans."
