Here's the J. Kenji López-Alt article I mentioned about whether you should salt bean soak water:
***RECIPE, SERVES 6-8***
1 lb (454g) dried small (Mexican) red beans
1 red onion
1 red bell pepper
2 stalks celery (plus celery leaves for garnish)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 smoked ham hock (or smoked turkey leg, or spoonful of smoked paprika)
paprika
garlic powder
cumin
oregano
dried sage
salt
pepper
olive oil
sugar
vinegar
hot sauce for garnish
cooked rice to eat it with
Soak the beans in enough water to keep them submerged as they double in size overnight. (Kenji recommends 15g of salt per liter of soak water, but plain water is fine too.)
The next day, you can either keep the soak water, or drain it out and rinse the beans clean. (The water has a lot of good color, but there's some evidence that it increases gas if you use it, and Kenji says he gets better texture by discarding salted soak water and rinsing the beans clean.)
Cut the onion, pepper and celery stalks into a medium dice, and put them in a big pot with a little olive oil. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until they seem at least halfway cooked. Stir in the tomato paste, then quickly add in the beans and enough water to cover everything before the paste burns. Drop in the ham hock.
Reduce the heat to a low boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans taste done — 45-60 min. At any point in the process, season to taste with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, oregano and sage. At the very end, stir in a pinch of sugar and a tiny splash of vinegar (not traditional but very good).
Serve the beans alongside rice, garnish with celery leaves, and drown in hot sauce. You can try to eat some meat off of the ham hock, but keep in mind it was chiefly for flavoring the beans.

Red Beans and Rice Dish Guide
Serves 4-6
16 oz andouille or other smoked sausage
16 oz dry red kidney beans
6 cups chicken/veggie stock or water
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3-4 ribs of celery, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 T olive oil
2 T hot sauce such as crystal or Texas Pete
3 bay leaves
2 t smoked paprika
½ t chipotle powder
Pinch of cayenne pepper (to taste)
1 t dried oregano
½ t ground thyme
½ t onion powder
½ t garlic powder
3 green onions, sliced thinly
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 cup (dry) basmati rice, cooked per package directions.
Slice the sausage into coins or half-moons. Add the olive oil to a large pot or dutch oven over medium heat and cook the sausage until golden brown and rendered (about 5 minutes). Remove sausage and set aside. Add the celery onion and bell pepper to the pot and cook, stirring often, for 4-5 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic, paprika, chipotle powder, cayenne, oregano, thyme, onion and garlic powder and stir, cooking out for 1-2 minutes.
Add the beans, stock or water, and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook at a simmer for an hour and 30 to 40 minutes or until the beans are soft enough to smash against the side of the bowl with a spatula (may take more time depending on your beans).
Using the spatula or a potato masher, smash up some of the beans so they release their starch into the cooking liquid. This will thicken the liquid so smash as much as you wish depending on your desired consistency. Add the hot sauce and cook uncovered for 20-30 minutes more until the beans are creamy and the stock has reduced a bit. Stir in the sausage, remove the bay leaves and taste for seasoning. Add a splash of water if the beans get too thick.
Serve in a wide bowl with a spoonful of steamed rice, garnished with a dash more hot sauce and some of the sliced green onions.
