O'odham White Tepary Bean Stew
Tepary beans love slow cooking. This recipe produces a slightly sweet, delicious rich broth and is ideal for a crock pot.
Ingredients
- 1 cup dried white tepary beans, rinsed and picked through
- 10 cups of water
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 pound oxtails, beef shortribs, deer or rabbit
Notes
Place beans, water and salt in a stockpot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 1 1/2 hours.
Add meat to the bean mixture, cover and cook for one more hour, or until beans are tender and the meat is falling off the bone.
If using a crock pot, place water and all other ingredients in the pot, cover and set to high. Cook for 8 hours or until the meat is falling off the bone and the beans are tender.
