A one pound bag of dried beans will make one BIG pot of soup. I usually feed 4-6 people with it, and have leftovers. When you do the first boil of the beans, you want lots of water, cause the beans will soak it up. When you drain & rinse & then add fresh water, I usually cover the beans with about an extra inch or two above the beans. They will continue to absorb the water...I usually cook them until they're kind of creamy. The baking soda makes them a bit creamier too. You can always dump a little water out if it's too 'soupy'.
I will confess, when I make my bean soup, I usually throw a couple ham hocks in for flavor...this will add some fat to the soup. I have made it without the ham hocks & it was still good though. Some people add onions to theirs, but I don't care for it myself. And of course, corn bread always makes a wonderful compliment to bean soup.

(Oh, and the bags of dried beans at the store usually have cooking directions on the back of the bag...they just don't tell you to add baking soda.)
