      Dear comrade, have you not heard the good word of maple beans, the heart of a good cabane à sucre menu?

      The ones I make are not the most traditional, but I just use tomato sauce (literally just milled and canned tomatoes I can at home, not like a prepared seasoned sauce), maple syrup, mustard powder and salt. It’s by eye and to taste but maybe 4 cups of dry beans, 1 L sauce, 1-2 tbsp mustard powder, salt to taste and syrup to taste. I soak the beans and cook in the electric pressure cooker, so I add more water if I think the sauce isn’t enough (it typically isn’t). I’ll add some salt to start, but will add more after it’s done and add the syrup once it’s done too.

      Eta: I’m 3rd gen slavic (I know how insane this sentence is everywhere else in the world but that’s how white people talk to each other here sorry) but I moved to eastern ontario a couple of years back and am trying to assimilate lol.
