    This one is a definite keeper. The flavors were absolutely delicious. I soaked my beans overnight, sans oil. The oil may help to elimiate foaming of the beans when added to the cooker with the other ingredients. I actually forgot to add it at that time, but luckily there was no foaming. My pressure cooker only allowed for 2 quarts of water to be added. I was at inside max marker. The consistency of the finished soup was perfect! Thanks so much for posting. I wish I could give you more stars.

    No need to add the oil when soaking the beans. The oil floats to the top and serves no purpose, so I omitted it from the recipe. Other than that, this makes a pretty good soup!

    I used this recipe as my first with my new pressure cooker and couldn't be more happy with the results. The taste was wonderful and the soup was fragrant. The only change I made was to add a clove of garlic. Thanks Diana
