Here's a great way to turn boring beans into a sublime side dish.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. small dry white beans
• 1 tsp. salt
• 2 medium apples, cored, pared and diced
• 1/2 cup golden raisins
• 1 small onion, minced

• 1/3 cup sweet pickle relish
• 2/3 cup honey
• 1 tbsp. prepared mustard
• 1 tsp. curry powder (or to taste)

Instructions

1. Combine beans, 6 cups water and salt in large saucepan. Let stand overnight. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer 2 hours, adding water, if needed. Drain beans, reserving liquid.

2. Combine drained beans with remaining ingredients. Pour into a 2 1/2-quart casserole. Add enough bean liquid to barely cover. Bake, covered, at 300 degrees for 1 hour. Remove cover; bake about 30 minutes, adding more liquid, if needed. Makes 8 servings.
