growing curious: cooking beans, take two

[growing curious] If using your soup pan, put the lid on the pot and put it in the oven at 200 degrees for one hour (if beans are very fresh) or longer.  If using a ceramic bean pot or lidded glass casserole dish, you need to transfer your beans to this pot at this stage because you don't usually boil such vessels over a burner.

[Dreams and Bones] Dreams and Bones » Baked Beans Worked!: Dump everything except salt in crock pot and turn on in evening.  Check water  level before bed and add more if needed.  Ignore until morning.  We cracked the lid for a little while to steam off some of the water, but I think now I would leave it, because the beans are a little less done than I’d like while the rest of the texture is right.  Continue to cook until consistency and flavor is nearly appropriate to baked beans.  Add salt to taste.  Cook a little longer.  It’s nearly 1:30 now and I had them turned off until I found the beans a little hard.  Probably they could have been considered done around 11:00 otherwise.

[Chefs Collaborative] Chefs Collaborative » Blog Archive » Magic [Marfax] Beans: The beans are medium-small, roundish, and golden-tan colored.  They have a rich flavor and are great for baked beans.  I know I’ll be torn when it comes to using my small crop of Marfax beans - should I dig a bean hole for a historic taste of Marfax beans, recreate a dish made by a Grow-Out chef, or come up with my own use?  Should I eat all my beans, or save a few to plant again next year?  No matter what I do, I’ll be thinking about the farmers and chefs participating in our project, and the rich history of Marfax beans throughout New England.  In future blog posts, I’ll be writing about Grow-Out farms and restaurants, not my own garden… but yesterday, those five little seedlings really brought this project home for me.
