Recently, on two different occasions, my soaked dry Lima beans turned into a disaster.
In the first case I noticed the skins getting all wrinkled so I threw them out after a couple hours.
The second time the same thing happened but I allowed them to continue soaking. After about 4 hours I noticed the beans were shedding their skins and splitting in half.
I've never soaked Lima beans before but I have not seen this sort of thing happen with White Beans or Great Northern's.
