Indian Leather Britches Beans

native, preserving

1 x no ingredients

Pick the green beans when young and tender and string them on a heavy thread, like long strings of beads, one after the other. Hang the strings of beans in a sunny pplace to dry. It may take as long as a month for the beans to be thoroughly dry. When dry, store in baskets for winter use. To use Leather Brithces beans: wash the beans well and soak 2 cups dried beans in 2 cups of water for an hour or so. Now add 1/4 lb. slab ppork, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and reduce heat. Stir, then simmer very gently for about 3 hours or until beans are tender. Add boiling water if needed to keep beans from burning. Serve hot as a vegetable dish. Good with Indian corn bread.
