Cómo preparar Old Fashioned Baked Beans
- Soak 1 pound of dried beans overnight in a large bowl, well covered with cold water.
- Drain the soaking water and rinse the beans thoroughly. Remove any stones or damaged beans.
- Transfer the beans to a large pot or Dutch oven.
- Cover the beans with fresh cold water and add 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer until the bean skins crack easily when you blow on a bean taken out with a spoon (approximately 45-60 minutes).
- While the beans are simmering, prepare the other ingredients.
- Cut 1 medium onion into quarters and place them in the bottom of a 6-quart bean crock or large casserole dish.
- Add the partially cooked beans to the crock or casserole dish.
- Place 4 ounces of diced salt pork (or 2 tablespoons of bacon grease) on top of the beans.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup molasses, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups of boiling water until the sugar dissolves.
- Pour the brown sugar mixture evenly over the beans.
- Add enough boiling water to come just to the top of the beans.
- During baking, if the beans seem too dry, add more boiling water as needed.
- Cover the crock or casserole dish and bake in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for 6 hours, or until the beans are incredibly tender and the sauce has thickened. You may need to add extra water if the beans get too dry during this time.
