1. Place the beans and bay leaves in a medium sauce pan. Add enough water to cover them by 2 inches. Bring the water to a boil then adjust the heat so it is boiling gently. Cook beans until they are tender, about an hour and a half. Make sure to keep an eye on the beans, they should always be covered by liquid. When the liquid meets the level of the beans add cold water to cover by about an inch or two.
