1. 1

   Rinse and sort through beans. In a deep 3 1/2- to 4-quart pan, bring 2 quarts of the water to a boil over high heat. Add the beans. Let water return to a boil; then boil, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from heat, cover, and let stand for 1 hour. Drain and rinse beans, discarding cooking water.

2. 2

   In a small nonstick frying pan, combine cumin seeds, oregano, paprika, and ground chiles; cook over medium heat, stirring, until paprika darkens and cumin seeds become fragrant (3 to 5 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside. In a 3 1/2-quart or larger electric slow cooker, combine onion, bell pepper, garlic, and bay leaf; sprinkle with paprika mixture and baking soda. Add beans to cooker, pour in remaining 3 cups water. Cover and cook at low setting until beans are very tender to bite (10 1/2 to 12 1/2 hours).
