Beans

[Annette Curtain]

Both humble & noble is the Baked Bean.

I'm eating mine on sour dough toast with a grating of cheese ( souped up with Lea & Perrins, a little white pepper too )

Heinz or Branston ( I've switched to the later ) or a.n.other, they're always there, dependable.

Once a week, very grounding for the soul, I think.

BUT how do you like yours ?

(?)A.

[jumpinjackflash]

I like to bathe in them

[Narnia]

Which is the later one? Is it all about timing?

[Jah Lush]

With chilli sauce.

[Ladymuck]

One of my friend's sons likes to count them.

BTW there are around 100 BBs in an average can.

There are.

[edcam]

You are right Annette! I have recently discovered that Branston are superior to Heinz. Who'd have thought it? I also enjoy pretty much exactly that recipe. Are you me?

[Ladymuck]

Jah: if you like them piquant, try them with a finely chopped fresh chilli....really good, but.....ooooooofff

[Jah Lush]

Or scotch bonnet.... hmmmmm.

[Ridgley]

Too sweet for me don't like them.

[Ladymuck]

But you can't beat the aroma Ridgley.

I successfully grew them one year! But too hot for hubby (and most people LOL)!

[Jah Lush]

Spice 'em up a bit Ridgely. You won't regret it. Maybe with some grated cheese too.

Oh, Ridgley grumpy pants.

Tell mummy that there are reduced sugar ones now.

Silly boy, come on join in now ( & wipe your nose )

:)Nette.

[Ladymuck]

Oh, if you want to go really wild, in addition to the fresh Scotch Bonnet, some finely chopped spring onions sprinkled on top. oooooooffff and double oooooooooffff

[Ladymuck]

Oh blimey, I got the wrong end of the stick of usual. I thought Ridgley was talking about the peppers (not beans).

And Ridgley is neither silly nor a boy. Ner, you grimey old bit of fabric.

;-)

[Ridgley]

Sorry guys don't like baked beans any sort of beans, just not my thing.

[Jah Lush]

I'm eating some now, smothered in black pepper.

70% of people polled preferred Branston to Heinz.

I like to pimp my beans with a little chorizo and some fresh tomato. Excellent on sourdough.

Oh dear....

Never mind, there's always alphabet spaghetti. ( or something like that )

That is so upsetting, some mothers really have messed up their kids.

( i'm sure he's tried to forgive her )

Oh my, Ridgley

You're a girl, so sorry it's my mistake.

(& you don't sound at all butch either, is this working ?)

NO wonder you hate beans.

:-S Nette.

[jumpinjackflash]

Alphabet spaghetti! Takes me back to my 'yoof'.

Birds Eye Potato Waffles and Heinz Spaghetti hoops....lovely!

[Emerson Crane]

Beans are great piled high on a buttered jacket spud and a sprinkling of mature cheese. Tasty.

[Ladymuck]

Aaah...

A true connoisseur of fine cuisine.

One does ones best don't you know. :)

[Ladymuck]

Oh dear...

not sure if I should admit this, but we cross-posted EC...

my post was in response to the spaghetti hoops, alphabetti spaghetti post by JJF.

Sorry to disappoint you...:(

Though beans on a buttered spuds (minus the cheese - yuk) are lovely: most comforting on a miserable day like today.
