I've had this problem with dried legumes which have been stored for extended
periods and have not discovered a satisfactory answer. It may be they need
to be soaked longer or be cooked for an extended period or both. I have not
had the problem with dried legumes purchased shortly before use from my
local health food store which sells them in bulk and has a high turnover.
