THE ONCE AND FUTURE BEANS
Steps:
- Heat oven to 250 degrees F.
- Soak beans in a plastic container overnight in just enough cold water to submerge them completely.
- Place a cast iron Dutch oven over medium heat and stir in the bacon, onion, and jalapenos until enough fat has rendered from the bacon to soften the onions, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, dark brown sugar, and molasses.
- Drain the beans and reserve the soaking liquid. Add the drained beans to the Dutch oven. Place the soaking liquid in a measuring cup and add enough vegetable broth to equal 4 cups of liquid. Add the liquid to the Dutch oven and bring to a boil over high heat. Add in cayenne, black pepper and salt. Give them a stir and cover with the lid. Place the Dutch oven in the oven for 6 to 8 hours, or until the beans are tender.

Tips:
- Soak your beans overnight. This will help them cook more evenly and reduce the cooking time.
- Use a variety of beans. Different beans have different flavors and textures, so using a variety will add interest to your dish.
- Don't overcook your beans. Overcooked beans are mushy and bland. Cook them just until they are tender but still hold their shape.
- Season your beans well. Beans can be bland on their own, so be sure to season them well with salt, pepper, and other spices.
- Add vegetables and other ingredients to your beans. This will add flavor and nutrients to your dish. Some good additions include onions, garlic, peppers, tomatoes, corn, and zucchini.
- Serve your beans with a variety of sides. Beans can be served with rice, pasta, bread, or salad. You can also use them as a filling for tacos, burritos, or quesadillas.
Conclusion:
Beans are a versatile and affordable ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. They are a good source of protein, fiber, and nutrients. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make delicious and healthy bean dishes that your whole family will enjoy.
