I am not a big kidney bean fan but I have cooked just about every other kind of beans I can think of!. This is how I usually do it!.
Clean debris and rinse!. Cover with water completely!. Soak overnight!. Pour off soaking water!. Then I saute onion, garlic, celery or bell pepper (what have you), add broth or bouillon and liquid to cover!. I cook my beans in a pressure cooker!. Even if I have trouble getting them to soften in a cook pot, the pressure cooker will do wonders for a pot of beans!. They aren't too expensive and easy to use!. Maybe a friend has one you can borrow to check it out!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I leave them in water overnight, and then I cook them in a crock pot all the next day!. I also put in lots of spices (bay leaf, S&P and anything else I want), garlic, sauteed onions and bell peppers as well as fried (browned only) smoked sausage!. That's the way we cook them in New Orleans!.!.and over rice of course!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Because they are basically poisonous if not cooked properly I would soak them overnight, rinse well & cook in lots of simmering water until tender!. Do NOT add any salt until they are nearly cooked as the salt will harden the water & extend the cooking timeWww@FoodAQ@Com
you could use a presuure cooker to speed up the cooking of the kdney beansWww@FoodAQ@Com
Never heard of them!. Do you mean kidney stones!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
