This recipe is a waste of time. The beans were tasteless and the whole dish was a disappointment.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the beans never softened. I cooked them for over 2 hours and they were still hard.

The beans took longer to cook than the recipe said. I had to add extra water and cook them for an extra 30 minutes.

The beans were a bit too salty for my taste. I'll try using less salt next time.
