The word Sousbone is an Afrikaans word, and it literly means gravy beans. I am posting this recipe because I am seeing all the baked bean ones and this is the most yummy beans recipe ever. It is a very old South African one. I hope you all enjoy it.

SERVES 12 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 (250 g) packet dried brown speckled sugar beans
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup brown spirit vinegar
2-3 tablespoons cornstarch
salt and pepper

Directions

1
Soak the beans overnight in about 4 cups of water.
2
Cook the beans till just soft. (This does take some time)Keep the beans just covered with liquid all the time.
3
You can rinse the beans once during cooking. I don't normally because I rinse in boiling water before I put them on to cook.
4
Mix the cornstarch with the vinegar and add to the beans together with sugar.
5
Add salt and pepper to taste.
6
Cook a few minutes more to thicken the gravy.
7
They may be eaten hot or cold.
