and almost cooked through.

beans in a casserole. Pour half the beer

the meat juices. Pour the juices over
the bean mixture and stir. Cover and

until onions appear cooked through.
Remove cover and bake another half
hour. Add remaining beer if mixture
seems to be getting dry.
COOKING
DRY BEANS
• Soak beans before cooking, using
this quick -soak method. Use 3 cups
water to each cup beans. To reduce
foaming add 1 tablespoon oil. Bring
to a full boil. Boil rapidly for 2
minutes. Set aside for 1 hour. Return
to boil; reduce heat. Simmer gently
for 40 minutes. Simmer for 60 min-
utes if recipe does not require further
cooking.
• Yellow -eyed beans may be substi-
tuted for white beans in recipes.
Simmer yellow -eyed beans for 1 hour
instead for 40 minutes.
• Never add baking soda to the cooking
water, it destroys vitamins.
• Use a covered, heavy, earthenware or
cast iron pot for moist, evenly -baked
beans.
• Cook beans slowly (3-4 hours) at
300°F for moist, tender beans.
• If you want to save time — pressure
cook beans after presoaking. Cook
for 45 minutes at 15 pounds pressure.
• Store...dry beans in a tightly covered
container in a dry place. They will
keep indefinitely.
• Store...baked beans in the freezer for
up to 5 months. I i
