Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 lb Dried Navy pea beans or 1 md Onion, peeled
-yellow eye beans (2 cups) 2 t Dried mustard
6 c Cold water 1/4 c Molasses
1 t Salt 1/3 c Brown sugar
1/4 lb Salt pork 1/3 c Maple syrup

Wash beans and add cold water. Cover and let soak overnight. Add
salt to beans and liquid and simmer gently until tender, about 1
hour. Drain, reserve liquid. Measure 1-3/4 cup bean liquid, add
water if necessary. Cut a slice from the salt pork and place in the
bottom of the bean pot. Add beans; place the onion in center of the
beans. Mix mustard, sugar, molasses, and maple syrup with bean
liquid; pour over beans. Cut 3 gashes in the remaining salt pork, and
place on top of the beans. Rind side up. Cover and bake 5 to 7 hours
in a 300oF oven, adding more water as needed. Remove cover from bean
pot the last half hour so pork rind will brown and become crisp.
Makes 6 servings.
