Recipe: Madam Russell Baked Beans (using molasses, brown sugar and salt pork)

Side Dishes - Beans
MADAM RUSSELL BAKED BEANS

1 pound dried white pea beans
1 medium onion, diced
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 pound lean salt pork, diced

Pick over beans and rinse. Place in a large bowl; add water to cover. Let stand overnight.

Drain beans and combine with onions in a large saucepan; add water to cover; heat to boiling; cover. Simmer 45 minutes, or until skins of beans burst when you blow on several in a spoon.

Drain liquid into a small bowl. Measure 1 cup of the bean liquid and combine with molasses, mustard, brown sugar, and salt in a bowl.

Layer half of the salt pork and all of the beans into an 8 cup bean pot. Pour molasses mixture over top; add just enough more saved liquid to cover beans. Top with remaining salt pork, pressing down into liquid.

Cover and bake at 300 degrees F for 4 hours. Uncover and bake 1 hour longer, or until beans are deep brown, tender, and as dry as you like them. (After 2 hours baking, check beans, and if they seem dry, add more saved bean liquid to keep them moist.)

Makes 6 servings
