Follow The Directions

01

Step
11 mins

Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add bacon and cook until almost crispy, about 8 minutes. Take your time cooking the bacon in order to render out all the fat. Add onions and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes.

02

Step
15 mins

Pour in vinegar and scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Pour in beans and their liquid; season with salt and pepper. Stir in radishes. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

03

Step
5 mins

Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.

For a richer flavor, use smoked bacon.
Adjust the amount of salt and pepper to your liking.
If you don't have daikon radish, you can substitute turnips or potatoes.
For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and use 2 tablespoons of olive oil instead.
