Bayou Red Beans and Rice

6 Servings

• 1 pound dried red kidney beans, sorted and rinsed
• 4 cups water
• 1 ham bone
• 1 large onion, chopped
• ¼ cup chopped celery (with leaves)
• ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 3 cups hot cooked long grain white rice

Heat beans and water to boiling in Dutch oven. Boil uncovered 2 minutes; reduce heat. Stir in remaining ingredients except rice. Cover and simmer 1 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender. (Add water if necessary during cooking; water should just cover beans at end of cooking time.)

Remove 1 cup of the beans, and mash to a paste. Stir mashed beans into bean mixture in Dutch oven; stir until liquid is thickened. Remove ham bone; remove any meat from bone and stir into beans.

Serve beans over rice.
