    Rinse beans, cover with water and soak overnight. Drain.

    Place in large pot with 2 quarts water. Bring to boiling, reduce heat and simmer, covered, until tender - 1½ to 3 hours. Add seasonings, onion, garlic and tomatoes; cook for another 45 minutes. Remove bay leaves, stir in cilantro, serve over rice, garnish with scallions & cheese.
