What kind of beans?

[The Mrs]

Other than Jellybeans...what kind of beans are you storing?

And what will you use them for? Do you have some recipes to share?

[Margies3]

NONE! I absolutely hate beans. Sorry, can't help you with that one.

Brown Beans
one of my grammas old recipes~

Tsalagi

2 cups Born Beans
4 cups cornmeal
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda

Boil beans in salted water until tender. In separate bowl, mix cornmeal, baking soda and flour and mix well. Add beans and a little of the bean juice to the mixture to form stiff dough. Roll into balls, drop in boiling water and cook 30 mintues.
This does not sound to good but it taste better than it sounds. American word for them (Bean Balls)

I cooked Big Limas for my hubby this week.

I've never cooked with beans, (Canned chili doesn't count, right?) but my mother used to make a navy bean soup and chili when I was a kid. Seems like the soup would be a good option. I think she used small bits of ham in it as well, or maybe it was just a big bone?

I guess I should ask her to teach me, eh?

We are storing pinto beans. We like bacon best cooked with them, but ham or salt pork are good too. I personally don't like beans, but I think in a difficult time, I would eat them if I had to. We have also stored lots of salt too, because you need salt when cooking beans!

If you are looking for recipes for beans, perhaps you could check out this book "The Bean Queen" by Karen Hurd. I've heard it has some really amazing bean recipes.
