Soaking dried beans overnight before cooking them reduces cooking time. However, cooking without presoaking yields plumper beans. Therefore, when a bean dish’s quality is more important than the need to cook that dish quickly, beans should not be presoaked.
Which one of the following is an assumption required by the argument?
A. Plumper beans enhance the quality of a dish.
B. There are no dishes whose quality improves with faster cooking.
C. A dish’s appearance is as important as its taste.
D. None of the other ingredients in the dish need to be presoaked.
E. The plumper the bean, the better it tastes.
