Name: Beans Cooked in a Pot (Frijoles De Olla)
Ingredients: 1 lb Beans - black, turtle, pink, or pinto; An earthenware bean pot (I used my crock pot); 10 c Hot water; 1/4 c White onion, roughly sliced; 2 tb Lard; 1 tb Salt, or to taste; 2 lg Sprigs epazote (only if black beans are used) (An herb)

The hallmark of the preaching which the Spirit effects is 'boldness'... As in the Old Testament, when the Spirit fills the servant of God He 'clothes himself' with that person, and aspects of the Spirit's authority are illustrated in the courageous declaration of the Word of God. This boldness appears to involve exactly what it denotes: there is freedom of speech. We catch occasional glimpses of this in the Acts of the Apostles. What was said of the early New England preacher Thomas Hooker becomes a visible reality: when he preached, those who heard him felt that he could pick up a king and put him in his pocket!

INGREDIENTS

1	lb	Beans – black, turtle, pink, or pinto
		An earthenware bean pot (I used my crock pot)
10	c	Hot water
1/4	c	White onion, roughly sliced
2	tb	Lard
1	tb	Salt, or to taste
2	lg	Sprigs epazote (only if black beans are used) (An herb)

INSTRUCTIONS

*Pinto or pink beans will need 12 to 14 cups water
Rinse the beans and run them through your hands to make sure that there are
no small stones or bits of earth among them.
Put the beans into the pot and cover them with the hot water. Add the onion
and lard and bring to a boil.
As soon as the beans come to a boil, lower the flame and let them barely
simmer, covered, for about 3 hours for black beans and 2-1/2 hours for the
other varieties, or until they are tender, but not soft. Do not stir during
this time.
Add the salt and epazote, if you are using it, and simmer for another 30
minutes.  Set aside, preferably until the next day. There should be plenty
of soupy liquid.
