  • Soak the beans overnight or for at least 8 hours before cooking. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
  • Rinse the beans thoroughly before cooking. This will help to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Cook the beans in a large pot with plenty of water. The water should cover the beans by at least 2 inches.
  • Bring the beans to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours, or until the beans are tender.
  • Drain the beans and let them cool completely before using them in the salad.
  • For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp vegetables in the salad. Choose vegetables that are in season and at their peak of ripeness.
  • If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use about 1/3 of the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. The salad will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
