Ingredients

Directions
1.
Shell the beans, and let them stand in cold water for one hour.
2.
Put them into a saucepan, and cover with boiling water.
3.
Cover the saucepan, and boil slowly from one to two hours, depending upon the age of the beans. There should be very little water left at the end of the cooking, so that seasoning may be added without draining the beans.
