​How long does it take to cook red beans in a pressure cooker

Red beans are mainly used to make porridge. Some people cook the red beans in a pot in advance to make red bean buns. After cooking them until they are very soft, they are pressed into red bean paste. In this way, pure natural red bean buns can be made, and there is no need to buy red bean fillings separately outside to prevent additives. When red beans are cooked in a pressure cooker, it usually takes a long time. Let us take a look at the cooking steps.

You can cook porridge in a pressure cooker just like cooking rice. Put rice and red beans in the pot at the same time. Add 1 to 3 times more water when cooking porridge than rice. But be sure to pay attention to not cooking too much porridge at one time. It must not exceed half the height of the pot. After heating and venting, you should pay attention to whether the vent valve can continue to vent. If it cannot vent for a long time, you should stop heating immediately to avoid accidents caused by the vent valve being blocked.
