They can also be served, smaller quantities, as a side with sausages, frankfurters, bak ham or almost any substantial meat. The navy beans must be soaked over night in cold water. The followin morning they should be simmer very lightly together with the ba leaves (crushed), the parsley, chopped celery, crushed garlic, oregano, chili powder, cloves and salt. Cook until soft (about an hour and a half). You can tell by removing a bean or two, and blowing on it; if the skin breaks, it's ready. Drain off the liquid and reserve it. Place the beans in a crockery pot or earthenware casserole and add the fat bacon or salt pork. Don't use slic- ed bacon; buy it in a slab and dice it' in cubes. Take a few cups of the li- quid in which the beans have simmered and put this in another pot to simmer. Chop the tomatoes and add to the mixture. Then add the' tomato paste. Chop half the onions very fine and the others into chunks and add them. When the mixture is hot. pour in the molasses. Pour the result over the beans in the casserole. Put a lid on it and bake for at least six hours in a 250 deg. oven. (The longer beans bake the better they taste.) Check after three hours to make sure there's enough liquid. One hour before serving remove the lid and add the sherry. Now take the thinly sliced bacon and cover the en- tire top of the beans. Put the lid on and return the pot to the oven. Fif- teen minutes before serving, remove the lid, turn on the broiler and crisp the bacon into a covering crust. These beans are best served as a, main dish with nothing else except freshly baked sourdough bread well - buttered. 2 lbs. navy beans 1 lb. lean unsliced bacon 1 lb. thinly sliced bacon 2 bay leaves 6 stalks celery 1 bunch parsley 2 cloves garlic 1 tbsp. oregano 1 tbsp. chili powder 6 cloves 3 tsp. salt 6 large tomatoes 1 tin tomato paste 6 large onions( 2 cups molasses 1 cup sherry BAKED BEANS Two cups dried beans, 1/2 teaspoon soda. 1/4 pound piece of salt pork or bacon. 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard, 1/s cup chili sauce,. 1/2 cup molasses, boiling water.
