Receta Red Beans and Rice cajun style
I got this recipe from my long time High School friend although I adapted it just a bit. Bean generally say to soak overnight in water but i just found that if you just use really warm or hot tap water they soften a lot faster 2-4 hours and recently learned that adding 2 tbsp of baking soda to soak water reduces the gas that beans generally give you. Make sure to rinse really good when beans are done soaking.
