Ingredients
Directions
Soak the beans overnight in enough cold water to cover them. Drain and place in large pot with 1 quart fresh water. Add ham, carrot, onion, bay leaf, black pepper, and cayenne pepper and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and let mixture slowly simmer for 2–3 hours, or until beans are very soft. Mash beans slightly and serve over hot rice.
