Place beans in a pressure cooker with enough water to cover, and soak 12 hours, or overnight.
Add 2 1/2 quarts water to the beans, or enough to fill pressure cooker about 2/3 full. Cover, and cook 30 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. Remove from heat, and set aside.
Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and saute the garlic and onion until tender. Stir in the tomato and carrot. Cook about 5 minutes, and mix in the bacon. Cook and stir until bacon is crisp and evenly browned.
Mix the vegetable and bacon mixture into the pressure cooker with the black beans. Cover, and continue cooking approximately 10 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. Garnish with parsley, and season with salt and pepper to serve.

07/06/07 12:00 AM | Who Needs A Pressure Cooker?Of course you can cook beans without a pressure cooker. People have been cooking beans all over the globe for centuries without a pressure cooker. Just put them in pot, cover with about 3 inches of water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to simmer, cover and cook for about an hour to an hour and half or until tender. Or just follow the recipe that comes on the bean package. Don't add salt until after they're cooked or the skins will toughen and the beans will never get tender. |

06/17/07 12:00 AM | BAKIN' BACON!Regarding bacon...If you have never tried baking bacon, you don't know what you're missin' ! a broiler pan, so the grease will drop through to the pan underneath. The bacon stays flat, and crisp...325 degrees, keep an eye on it til it's just the crispness you like. You'll never fry again! |
