Looking for great recipe for baked beans that tastes like the one in primary school or the canned kind?

Question

For years since I left Glasgow to live in Jordan I've been craving a bowl of baked beans on toast. But I've tried many recipes and can't get that right one! Please give instructions and ingredients.

Where can I but online groceries and have them delivered internationally. To be specific where can I buy canned beans?

Answer 1

my mother always used canned beans and then doctored them up with ham/bacon,brown sugar, and either ketchup or barbecue sauce.

Answer 3

Baked Beans

* 1 pound dried white pea beans or navy beans
* 1 medium onion, diced, about 1/2 cup
* 1/2 cup molasses
* 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
* 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 pound salt pork, diced

Pick over beans and rinse. Place in a large bowl; add water to cover. Let stand overnight; drain.
Combine beans and onions in a large saucepan; add water to cover; heat to boiling; cover. Simmer 45 minutes, or until skins of beans burst when you blow on several in a spoon. Drain liquid into a small bowl. Measure 1 cup of the bean liquid and combine with molasses, mustard, brown sugar, and salt in a bowl. Layer half of the salt pork and all of the beans into an 8 cup bean pot. Pour molasses mixture overtop; add just enough more saved liquid to cover beans. Top with remaining salt pork, pressing down into liquid; cover.
Bake at 300F 4 hours; uncover. Bake 1 hour longer, or until beans are deep brown, tender, and as dry as you like them. (After 2 hours baking, check beans, and if they seem dry, add more saved bean liquid to keep them moist.)

Answer 4

I have never ever been able to find *anything* that tastes like either kind.
You will have to find some very nice person to send you some cans over. Or look in the local supermarket to see if they have a 'foreign food' selection - you should be able to get them there, along with good old Marmite (yum!)
