In practice
Dried black beans are dense, and a cup weighs about 194 g on this page; they roughly double or triple in volume once soaked and cooked, making about 2½ cups. A can of cooked black beans is around 1½ cups drained. Soaking overnight shortens cooking time and helps them cook evenly, and adding salt during cooking is fine despite old advice to the contrary. Always boil dried beans properly, since some raw beans contain compounds that can make you ill if undercooked.
How to convert cups of black beans (dry) to grams
