1 1/2 teaspoon t

1 1/2 teaspoon Ground in
1/2 teaspoon ck pepper
1/2 teaspoon lic powder
1 Chopped on optional

Place the rinsed and sorted beans in a lidded stockpot and cover with water about 3 inches above the level of the beans. Add the salt and cook on low covered almost all day (at least 6 hours), stirring and checking water levels occasionally. If they get too dry, boil water to add - NEVER ADD COLD WATER - it will make the beans hard. When the beans start getting a nice, slightly thickened broth, add the remaining seasonings and onion, if desired. Cook an additional half an hour or until the onion is soft. See notes to make refried beans from your leftover pintos.
