QUICK BOSTON BAKED BEANS



Quick Boston Baked Beans image

From Australian Super Food Ideas May 2007. Low GI, great breakfast or brunch or light supper. They recommend to make a double batch and freeze for later use eg as jacket potato topping. 9th November 2008 UPDATE made this today and have made changes to timing and serving size, I have upped to 5 serves based on that I got 5 cups of 250ml, weighing 200gram each. I've increased the prep time but then my knife skills are slow especially on a day of pain. UPDATE June 2010 - To make vegetarian omit the bacon and if you want try other canned beans (though white light coloured ones work best) and herbs. You could use dried beans but you would need to cook these first which doesn't make the recipe quick but very cheap to make.

COOK'S COUNTRY BAKED BEANS ALA TINA



Cook's Country Baked Beans ala Tina image

I bought two old bean pots from an antique store and a resale shop. Since I am now retired and there seems to be a lot of potlucks in our lives, I thought I needed to perfect a bean recipe. America's Test Kitchen has a quick way to soften the beans. Science has the Baking Soda magically softening the beans in the 20 minute...

Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon molasses and remaining 1 teaspoon mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve. (Beans can be refrigerated for up to 4 days.) TASTING NOTES: I have a personal preference for more sweet, than savory, when I eat Boston Baked Beans. I added about 1/4 cup honey and 1/4 cup brown sugar to the baked beans. That did it for me!
