LIMA BEANS EN CASSEROLE. While the small varieties of dried beans are more commonly baked than the larger ones, Lima beans will be found especially delicious when prepared in a casserole.

• 1 c. dried Lima beans
• 1/4 c. ham or bacon fat
• 2 c. milk
• 2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. pepper

Soak the beans overnight and then parboil them in soda water. Drain off the water and turn the beans into a baking dish. Add the fat, milk, salt, and pepper. Cover the dish and bake until the beans are soft. Serve hot from the casserole.
