INSTRUCTIONS
GARNISHES Rinse and pick over beans. Cover beans by about 4" of water & let stand overnite. (If you use the canned ones, you don't have to do this). In a large pot saute onions and garlic in a splash of broth, sherry or water, until onions are translucent. Drain beans & rinse with clean water. Add beans & broth to onions, bring to boil & add ham hock & cayenne. Partially cover and simmer, stirring occasionally until beans are tender, 2-4 hours (unless you use canned beans, then maybe 15-30 minutes). Remove & cut up ham hock. Remove & puree 1/2 the beans and stir them back in adding vinegar & sherry. Serve hot over rice and pass the garnishes. Warm rye bread is a lovely complement.

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
