Rhubarb baked beans

Savory and sweet. Just try it.

Technically 10 servings.

Ingredients

  • Thick cut bacon, chopped or lardons - 4 slices
  • Rhubarb, chopped - 1.5 cups
  • Sweet onion, chopped - 1 cup
  • Fresh ginger, grated - 1 tsp (or powdered, measure with your heart)
  • Salt - .5 tsp
  • Navy beans, drained and rinsed - two 15oz cans
  • Tomato sauce - one 8oz can
  • Brown sugar, packed - .5 cup
  • Yellow mustard - 2 tsp

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large skillet (or heavy-bottomed, oven safe pan like the Staub wok), cook bacon until crisp. Remove. In drippings, cook rhubarb and onion about two minutes or until tender. Add ginger and salt, cook one minute more.

Stir in beans, tomato sauce, brown sugar, mustard, and cooked bacon. Transfer to 1.5 quart baking dish or use one pan, see note above. Cover and bake 25 minutes. Uncover and bake 20 minutes more or until surface no longer looks wet (start checking at about 15 minutes).
