I just found out how to do this last week. It's super easy and saves a lot of money. If you have ingredients to spare, use 1/2 or all stock instead of water (I used homemade chicken stock), a few bay leaves, 1/2 an onion, some garlic cloves and if you're not vegetarian, a piece of bacon. It gives the beans A LOT of delicious flavor.
