Canning beans has several amazing benefits... dry beans are cheap and easy to store and once you have them canned they make a great and versatile convenience food.

Even more importantly, store-bought canned beans are not properly prepared... the beans have not been soaked before they were canned leaving them full of phytic acid, an anti-nutrient, and enzyme inhibitor. When you can your own beans at home you have full control of the preparation, making the final product much more nourishing.

Beans need to be canned in a pressure canner to be safe. But don't worry... pressure canners are easy to use once you get the hang of them. In this video, Carolyn shows you every step of the process of preparing and canning your dry beans for a cheap, convenient and healthy pantry food.
