What material is your pot made of? I cook a lot of black beans, a
favorite here, had them for dinner last night and will have them for
dinner tonight. Cooked in a stainless steel pot they don't stain the
pot but they will stain foods, like rice. We like refried beans and
black beans is what we use.... we usually have them cooked with pork
chops but this time with kielbasa.
