HOLLY'S BAKED BEANS
These beans are so simple to make, and if anybody looks at my recipes they will see that I stick to easy cooking. I have been making these baked beans for years, and gradually have tweaked the recipe to satisfy my families taste. My husband isn't crazy about a lot of onions, so I don't use them in the beans. We love sweet beans. Just like any recipe in the universe, you can add or subtract to suit your taste. These beans are fresh Maine beans that we bought at the farmers market. They are cooking in the oven right now and they smell soooo good!!!

Steps:
- First you need to soak the beans overnight in cold water. Then turn the stove on and slowly boil until the skins start to peel off the beans. I usually take a spoon full and blow on them.
- drain the beans
- Cut the salt pork into about 4 or 5 slices, and put in the bottom of the bean pot. Pour the beans in over the salt pork.
- In a saucepan put 3 cups of cold water. Add the mustard, molasses and brown sugar to the pan. Cook until hot and pour over the beans in the pot.
- Put the pot into the oven at 300 degrees and cook for about 8 hours. Depending on your oven, they might be done sooner than that. This is my bean pot that I got as a wedding gift 33 1/2 years ago.
- Periodically throughout the cooking process you will have to check the beans to make sure there is enough water. I leave a small pan on the stove and boil water before I add it to the beans. At the end of the cooking process I stop adding water because I want the liquid to be a bit thick. Also taste the beans at times to see how they are doing. You can tell when they're done.
- When my beans are done, I add more brown sugar. This is of course optional. Like I said above my family likes sweet beans. You can leave the beans on the stove with the cover on and they'll stay warm for quite awhile. You can also put them back in the oven to heat through again. Here is the finished product. They are perfectly browned, sweet and delicious. I make Annette's 7-up biscuits, which were delicious, and served them with the beans.
BAKED BEANS
Proper Boston baked beans would have salt pork instead of the bacon. James Beard cooked them with ribs. The key is to use the little white pea beans known as navy beans, and to allow time to do most of the work. (Or to cheat: Canned white beans make fantastic baked beans in about an hour. If you use them, you'll need four 15-ounce cans. Drain and then follow the directions from step 2 on to the end. Please understand that you'll need much less water and much less time to get them where you want them to be.) The combination of molasses and dry mustard is a taste as old as America itself, and takes well to both ham and soft brown bread.

Steps:
- Soak beans in a large bowl of water for 6 hours or overnight. Drain beans and put them in a large oven-safe pot with a heavy bottom and a tightfitting lid. Add 1 teaspoon salt and enough cool water to cover 2 inches above the beans. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the beans are just tender, approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Drain and remove beans.
- Heat the oven to 250 degrees. Bring a kettle full of water to a boil on the stove. Return the heavy-bottomed pot to the stove and turn the heat to medium high. Cook the bacon in the bottom of the pot until it begins to brown, then turn off the heat and add the chopped onion and, on top of it, the beans. Mix together molasses, mustard and black pepper, and add the mixture to the pot. Pour in enough boiling water to cover beans, put the lid on and bake, occasionally adding more water to keep beans covered, until they are tender but not falling apart, 4 to 5 hours.
- Remove beans from oven, uncover, stir and season with salt. With the lid off, return pot to oven and let beans finish cooking, uncovered and without additional water, until the sauce has thickened and the top is deeply crusty, about 45 minutes more.

Steps:
- Soak navy beans overnight in a large bowl with enough water by several inches. Drain and place beans into a large Dutch oven or heavy pot with 6 cups water, baking soda, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and boil for 10 minutes. Drain, saving bean-cooking liquid.
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Transfer beans into clean Dutch oven and stir bacon, onion, molasses, brown sugar, dry mustard, salt, and black pepper into beans. Pour enough of the hot reserved bean liquid in to cover beans; stir.
- Cover Dutch oven and bake in preheated oven for 1 hour. Check liquid level and add more of the reserved bean liquid to bring liquid up to cover beans. Return to oven and continue baking until beans are tender and almost all the liquid has been absorbed, about 1 hour.
- Raise oven heat to 350; bake beans uncovered in oven until top develops a flavorful crust, 20 to 30 more minutes.
