Linda's Pressure Cooker Lima Beans

Recipe #272121 | 2¼ hours | 15 min prep | add private note

I hate lima beans. They are grainy and gross. My husband LOVES them so one day I accidentally made lima beans that I absolutely adored. It was a timing mistake, but a delightful mistake! The beans were supposed to cook for 20 minutes but I set the timer for 60!

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Put the hocks and water into your pressure cooker and set for one hour on high pressure.
  2. 2
    When done, remove to a bowl while the rest of the ingredients cook.
  3. 3
    Add all the veggies and seasonings to the liquid in the pressure cooker and set to high pressure for one hour.
  4. 4
    Meanwhile, pick the meat out of the hocks and dice.
  5. 5
    When the time is up on the pressure cooker let it cool down naturally and then add the meat back to the cooker.
  6. 6
    Test a lima bean - they should be creamy with no grainy texture at all. If they are grainy turn the pressure cooker on for about 15 more minutes.
  7. 7
    Serve it up with Yankee corn bread!
  8. 8
    This recipe is for frozen lima beans, not dried or canned.
