The Chef
Says

It's beans that have given the
name of "Beantown" to Boston;
as a matter of fact, baked beans
are pretty much of a traditional
dish all over New England. There
are various little differences in
the way they are prepared; on
Cape Cod half a cup of cream is
added to baked beans during the
last half hour of cooking. Con-
necticut cooks like to tuck an
onion in the middle of the bean
pot; Boston uses molasses, Ver-
mont maple sugar (natch). and
New Hampshire prefers yellow-eye
to pea beans.
In the old days the New Eng
lard housewife baked her beans
all day Saturday in the great
brick oven, served them fresh for
dinner that night. kept them warm
in. the brick oven to serve for
breakfast on Sunday, and then
once more, either hot or cold,
Sunday night. Sounds like a
pretty heavy diet of beans over
short period Of time, but I
guess people were blessed with
sturdier digestions in those days.
plus plenty of good hard work to
keep down the poundage.
Here is how the beans have
always been done in my mother
in-law's Boston house:
Wash and pick over l quart Of
pea beans. Soak them overnight
in cold water. In the morning
drain them, and cover with fresh
cold water, and simmer until the
skins start to pop. Put them in
bean pot-you can get wonder
full ones again-and tuck in Y
pound of salt pork, scored with
knife. Leave about quarter of
an inch of the pork sticking up
above the beans.
Now add teaspoons Of salt,
~ tablespoons of brown sugar,
"a cup molasses and u teaspoon
of dry mustard. Add boiling water
to cover. Cover the bean pot, and
bake for hours in a slow oven,
adding water as needed. Uncover
for the last 30 minutes to allow
the beans to brown.
This is. of course, the real Nc
Coy. But you CAN make a rea-
sonable facsimile by buying canned
pork and beans. without tomato
sauce. putting them in bean pot
with some molasses, mustard and
brown sugar, and heating them
through for about u hour.
Is good!
