Swedish Not Baked Beans Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, over medium heat, combine all the ingredients except the cornstarch and water; mix well and cook for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and the water, then add to the bean mixture, stirring occasionally until heated through. Serve immediately or simmer until ready to eat.

Steps:

• 1. In a large Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium-high heat until crisp, about 7 minutes, stirring frequently. Add onion and 1/4 tsp. of the salt; cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes, until onion is soft. Add garlic and cook 1 minute, stirring so it doesn't brown.
• 2. Add beans, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire, Dijon mustard, dry mustard, chili powder, cumin, pepper, remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and enough water to just cover beans. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
• 3. Carefully transfer to a 6-qt. slow cooker and cook on LOW for 8 to 9 hours, until beans are tender. Taste and adjust seasonings before serving.

Steps:

• Pick over and rinse the beans.
• Add the water and soak the beans at least 12 hours.
• Bring the beans and soaking water to a boil.
• Cover the pan and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
• Add the salt, vinegar, syrup, brown sugar, butter and cinnamon stick.
• Stir to mix.
• Simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour, or until the beans are tender.
• The liquid should be as thick as a sauce at the end of the cooking period.
• If the liquid is not thickened, turn up the heat for 10 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced.
• Remove the cinnamon stick.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Rinse dry beans, if used, and add water and salt. Simmer until tender, 1 to 2 hours. Add more water if beans tend to boil dry.
• When cooked, add syrup and vinegar, adjust seasonings and serve hot. Dish can be prepared day before.

Steps:

• Soak beans in a large bowl of water for 6 hours or overnight. Drain beans and put them in a large oven-safe pot with a heavy bottom and a tightfitting lid. Add 1 teaspoon salt and enough cool water to cover 2 inches above the beans. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the beans are just tender, approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Drain and remove beans.
• Heat the oven to 250 degrees. Bring a kettle full of water to a boil on the stove. Return the heavy-bottomed pot to the stove and turn the heat to medium high. Cook the bacon in the bottom of the pot until it begins to brown, then turn off the heat and add the chopped onion and, on top of it, the beans. Mix together molasses, mustard and black pepper, and add the mixture to the pot. Pour in enough boiling water to cover beans, put the lid on and bake, occasionally adding more water to keep beans covered, until they are tender but not falling apart, 4 to 5 hours.
• Remove beans from oven, uncover, stir and season with salt. With the lid off, return pot to oven and let beans finish cooking, uncovered and without additional water, until the sauce has thickened and the top is deeply crusty, about 45 minutes more.
