Archives: Recipe: From-Scratch Baked Beans Archived on 08/13/2009 Ingredients 1 lb. dried great northern beans 4 to 6 slices bacon 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 clove garlic, minced 2 cups ketchup (I like Hunt's) 1/2 cup molasses 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce 1 Tbsp. yellow mustard (I like French's) 1 tsp. chili powder Directions Place the beans in a large saucepan and cover with salted water by 2 to 3 inches. Soak the beans overnight. The next day, drain and rinse the beans. Return the beans to the saucepan and cover with fresh water by about 4 inches. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until the beans are tender but not bursting open. While the beans are cooking, mix the ketchup, molasses, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, chili powder together in a large bowl. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon. Drain the bacon on paper towels, crumble it, and set aside. Add the onion and garlic to the bacon drippings and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. The onion should still be a little crunchy. Drain the beans, reserving 2 cups of the bean water. Pour the beans and bean water into the bowl with the sauce. Add the bacon and onion and stir to combine well. Pour into a 13x9-inch baking dish and bake for 1 hour or until bubbly. Will keep, refrigerated, for up to 1 week.

By Robin Feedback: RE: Baked Beans I was so very pleased to see that there was a number of baked bean recipes..that is until I clicked on and found only "doctored-up" canned beans. I`d like very much to get recipes for real "baked beans" using raw beans that are soaked then other ingredients added, then baked. Thanks (07/16/2005) By Mairmie RE: Baked Beans I also was hoping for recipes from scratch. Or even plain cooked canned beans to which you add your own tomato sauce, bacon, and brown sugar (or whatever). I like the canned pork-n-beans fine except for the pork and the sugar. (07/17/2005) By Debbie RE: Baked Beans Go to FoodTV.com - click the links for the recipes on the show "Good Eats" - Alton Brown has a recipe called "The Once and Future Beans" - baked beans, from scratch, cooked in the oven in a cast-iron Dutch oven - they are TO DIE FOR! They can be made in a crockpot, too (I would suggest reducing the liquid a bit or they are a little watery). Enjoy! (07/20/2005) By GlitterFairy Boston Baked Beans Here's a recipe for baked beans from scratch. This was given to me by a man from Boston after he invited us for supper and served them. I believe they would be good as a crockpot meal, also. Serves 6. 1 pound navy or pea beans 1 large onion, chopped 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1/4 cup dark brown sugar 1/3 cup light brown sugar 1/4 cup molasses 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste Discard any discolored beans. In a large bowl, combine the beans with plenty of cold water and soak overnight for 6 to 8 hours. Drain the beans. In a large pot, combine the beans and enough water to cover them by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to simmer, and cook for 45 minutes or until they are just tender (it may take longer if the beans are old or the soaking time was short). Drain the beans and set aside the cooking liquid. Set the oven at 325 degrees F. In a bean pot or deep casserole with a lid, combine the beans, onion, mustard, dark and light brown sugars, molasses, and salt. Add enough of the cooking liquid to just cover the beans. Stir to blend them. Bring the liquid to a boil on top of the stove, then transfer to the oven and bake for 2 hours, checking every 30 minutes to make sure the beans don't dry. Add more cooking liquid if necessary. P>When the beans are tender, uncover the pot and cook for 20 to 30 minutes more to make a slightly crusty top.

By Robin from Washington, IA Report Spam or Abuse Request: Baked Beans Using Pinto Beans Archived on 08/13/2009 I am looking for a recipe for baked beans using Pinto Beans. Joanne from Bennington, VT Feedback: RE: Baked Beans Using Pinto Beans Hi, Joanne. Pinto beans. You buy them dry? If so, soak them overnight before using. Cover the beans with water and just leave them for 24 hours. Next day, drain off the water, put the beans in a baking pot, add tomato juice and canned, stewed tomatoes (enough to cover the beans), I package onion soup mix, 1 tablespoon prepared mustard, salt, pepper and 1/4 cup molasses. Cover. Bake at 350 degrees F. for two hours. Delicious! Hope you enjoy, Rose Anne (10/23/2006) By wordswork RE: Baked Beans Using Pinto Beans if you have a favorite recipe for baked beans it can be used for any type bean. my favorite is to add to cooked beans drained of most liquid, ketchup, brown sugar and a little yellow mustard to taste. chopped onions and green peppers sauteed just to soft can be added too. (10/23/2006) By Carla RE: Baked Beans Using Pinto Beans Baked Beans from Scratch 2 cups dried Navy beans or pinto beans 1 cup brown sugar salt and pepper to taste 4 strips bacon 2 T butter or margarine To shorten cooking time, place beans in a large saucepan and soak overnight in deep cold water. The next morning, do not drain but cook beans in the soaking cold water. Bring beans to a full boil over high heat; reduce heat so mixture barely simmers. Simmer until beans are tender, about 2 hours. Drain off all but about a cup of the boiling liquid. Butter a deep round two-quart casserole. Pour beans into casserole dish. Stir in brown sugar, salt and pepper. Lay strips of raw bacon to top of beans. Dot with butter in between bacon strips. Bake at 350 degrees Funcovered 1-1/2 to 2 hours until bacon is browned but beans are still moist. (10/24/2006) Report Spam or Abuse
