How to Make Slow Cooker Soy Beans

Rinse 1 pound of dried soybeans and soak them in 8 cups of water overnight (at least 8 hours).
Drain the soaking water and place the soybeans in your slow cooker.
Add 6 cups of fresh water to the slow cooker.
Cook on high for 3 hours.
Add 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 bay leaf to the slow cooker.
Cook on low for 12-14 hours, or until the soybeans are tender and easily mashed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Enjoy!
