Those stubborn beans! They just don’t want to get soft. This is usually a sign that the beans are old, but don’t worry! While the beans are boiling put a pinch of baking soda into the liquid. This will make the water softer (less acid) and will penetrate the bean skin easier. Just keep an eye on them or they will get mushy fast.
