~~~Marilyn I was wondering~~~Cranberry Beans Soup

[Guest guest]

Sometime (no rush !!!!) do you think you could tell me how you make your corn &

cranberry bean succotash. I'm so new to cooking beans. My mom never made them

so I never got to learn how. Thanks, Maddie

have our type of succotash, only made with lima beans. I searched and found

out that Cranberry beans were the same. I have to get corn and Cranberry

beans to make my succotash, but boy is it good!! Much better than with lima

beans and a completely different taste. All we put on it is butter and

sugar.

I'd love to hear how you make them. Do you use dry beans or fresh ones? I

learned something new too. I didn't know they had the name of October Beans.

Actually, I am lazy, so I buy a can of October (Cranberry) beans and a can

of whole kernel corn. I pour off the solution the corn is in, but not the

beans. I put them in a pot and heat them up. I serve with butter and

sugar, in a bowl. This will stay with you for many hours and has often been

used by cross-country skiers because of its staying effect. You could get

the dry beans, soak and cook like you would a pinto and add the corn, but

that is too much work for me as I am a single person.

It depends on what part of the country you are from, Judy. I just use a can

of each as there is only one of me here, but you could cook up the dried

beans and add the corn.
