• Pour the beans in the crock pot with the water, the bay leaves, the onion and garlic. (Cut in half the garlic cloves to take out the stem that germinates so it is nicer for your tummy, you can plant the stem or just through it away).

• Turn of the crock pot and add the salt, stir softly and let it rest for at least 30 minute.
