I bought dried giant lima beans. I soaked them overnight and cooked them too long and they became mushy.

How can I cook them so that they will be soft but not break when you pick them up with a fork?

Also, some of them had black spots on the inner side once cooked. Is this okay to eat? I didn't see this when the beans were dried.

Should I stick to baby lima beans for easier cooking?
