Equipment

  • 2 quart bean pot

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons dry mustard
  • 2 pounds white pea beans
  • 4 teaspoons salt
  • 1 pound fat salt pork
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

  • 1 medium size onion
  • 2/3 cup molasses
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  2. In the morning, rinse the beans and cover with fresh water that you have added 1 teaspoon of baking soda and parboil them for 10 minutes.
  3. Run cold water through the beans in a colander or strainer. Score salt pork into 1 inch squares, then cut in. Put 1/2 of the salt pork on the bottom of the bean pot with whole peeled onion. Put beans in the pot and put the rest of the salt pork on top.
