| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Pick over and rinse the beans. Add the water and soak the beans at least 12 hours.
|
2. Bring the beans and soaking water to a boil. Cover the pan and simmer for 1˝ hours.
|
3. Add the salt, vinegar, syrup, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon stick. Stir to mix.
|
4. Simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour, or until the beans are tender. The liquid should be as thick as a sauce at the end of the cooking period.
|
