We cooked it for one day, and it was good but the broth was too thin-tasting. We decided it needed to either cook some more, or have a bone in it. We cooked it some more. Sarah opted to add some dried blueberries; that helped a bit. So then we added a handful of chopped dates, cooked it an hour or so more, put it in containers and fridged it. Sarah will report in tonight on how it is now.

sometimes bean foods take more cooking than we would expect. Crockpots are handy for this.
