I soak them overnight, then in the morning I drain, mix with some bouillon and water, and cook in a pressure cooker for 20 min. Then I add those beans to my daily meals in various ways.
My standard/favorite is that I airfry a lot of veggies (mushrooms, peppers, broccoli, onion...), and I add these cooked beans to the basket with a few minutes left. I marinate the veggies in oil and spices and before they go in, and the beans are good at soaking up the leftovers stuck to the marination bowl while the veggies cook. Then I put the beans and veggies in pasta with cheese (pasta fagioli mac and cheese!), on toast with tomato and cheese (like a pizza!), baked into a casserole of some sort (often with pierogies!), with shredded potato in a frying pan (latkes!), or with rice in a tortilla (burrito!). Varying the bean type and accompanying veggies prevents stagnation.
Sometimes I end up with extra bean broth from the pressure cooker, and I turn that into a gravy to go on french fries with some cheese and the beans and veggies to make poutine. Takes extra time (two uses of the airfrier), but super delicious. I'll probably list that as my favorite.
