Orange Rosemary Beans
- 2 cups dry Navy Beans
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Drain soaked beans.
- In a large stockpot, combine beans with
enough fresh water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over
high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer until beans are almost
tender, about 40 minutes. Drain, reserving 2 cups of the cooking
liquid.
- In a 3 1/2-quart slow cooker, combine
beans, reserved liquid, and remaining ingredients. Cover and
slow cook until beans are tender, about 8 to 9 hours on low (200°F).
- During the last hour of cooking, increase
the heat to high (300°F,) and uncover to evaporate the excess
liquid.
Makes 7 servings.
