π Recipe adapted from RecipeNLG-Full
Soak washed beans in water overnight with 1/4 teaspoon baking soda.
If overnight is impossible, bring beans with water and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda to boil for 2 minutes only.
Cover and allow to stand one hour.
This is equal to 12 to 15 hours soaking. Rinse beans and put in heavy pot with 5 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon soda.
Bring to a boil and add 2 tablespoons bacon grease and salt.
Reduce heat to simmer; cover tightly and cook 2 hours. Cut bacon in 1/4 and fry partially; add to beans with all other ingredients.
Simmer for 2 hours.
Better if made a day ahead and reheated.
