How To make Madam Russell Baked Beans

x

1 pound dried white pea beans
1 medium onion

diced
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 cup brown sugar :

packed
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 pound salt pork -- lean, diced
Pick over beans and rinse. Place in a large bowl; add water to cover. Let stand overnight; drain. Combine beans and onions in a large saucepan; add water to cover; heat to boiling; cover. Simmer 45 minutes, or until skins of beans burst when you blow on several in a spoon. Drain liquid into a small bowl. Measure 1 cup of the bean liquid and combine with molasses, mustard, brown sugar, and salt in a bowl. Layer half of the salt pork and all of the beans into an 8 cup bean pot. Pour molasses mixture overtop; add just enough more saved liquid to cover beans. Top with remaining salt pork, pressing down into liquid; cover. Bake at 300F 4 hours; uncover. Bake 1 hour longer, or until beans are deep brown, tender, and as dry as you like them. (After 2 hours baking, check beans, and if they seem dry, add more saved bean liquid to keep them moist.)
