Revolutionary Food: Boston Baked Beans

Soak 1 quart of dried beans in cold water overnight.

Rinse the soaked beans in a colander two or three times.

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for a while.

Transfer the beans and pork to a bean pot.

Sprinkle a little pepper among the beans in the pot.

Ensure the beans are just covered with water before baking.
