Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon of soda
- half cup of milk
- an ounce of butter
- a slice of onion minced fine
- a cup of any cold meat chopped fine
- a cup of hot mashed potato
- a cup of cold chicken
- 33 pepper
- salt
- pepper
Directions
In the evening pour over 1 qt. navy beans water enough to cover them and let soak for twelve hours. In the morning place them in boiling pot with water enough to cover them and 1 tablespoon of soda, simmer until you can easily see that outer covering of the bean curls up when you breathe upon a spoonful in trying. Then strain off soda water and place them in clear water and boil slowly, simmer is better, until they are tender, but not in pieces. Now take your baking dish, place in a large layer of beans, then season them with salt and a little granulated sugar. Another layer of beans with the seasoning, and so on until they are nearly out, then place in the centre 1 lb. of lean salt pork. Finish placing the layers of beans and the seasoning. Pour over the beans until they are entirely covered the liquor they boiled in last, and use it in replenishing as they dry out, but aim to have them nice and dry and whole when ready to serve. Bake in a slow oven five or six hours. If you are fond of tomatoes, they are delicious, after being stewed and seasoned to taste, to mix through the beans just before serving.
