“Mamaw” Johnson (Kathryn) in Louisiana spent a lot of time cooking and making awesome dishes. She taught me to add simple ingredients into dishes, that provide added depth and a “pop”. Whenever we make these beans, and many other dishes, I see us working together in her New Iberia kitchen and it feels nice!
Ingredients
16 oz canned baked beans
4 tbsp finely chopped onion
2 tbsp finely chopped jalapeno or similar chili
1 tsp dark brown sugar
1 tsp molasses
1.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar
In a medium saucepan combine all the ingredients and mix well. Bring to a slow boil stirring often, then simmer for about 6 minutes uncovered, until reduced. The vegetables should still be crisp with only a slight change in color.
