Whichm then, has done for the textures issue. The beans themselves have
very little flavour. There is one way I tolerate kidney beans - in a 'bean"
salad. Where the crunch od other vegetables and smoosh of the wggs confuses
the issue enough that I forget to remind myself that I don't care for the
main ingredients. Bv)=

That would make sense - sodium if a great5 flavour enhancer.

I remain amazed that nore "emulsified" sausages are not meatless. Thank

Gravy deing another great flavour enhancer even if doing bupkes for the
texture. I sometimes will get a pair of "French Dip" sandwiches from Arby's
on special offering, That includes one generous portion of "gravy" per each.
And of course there's enough gravy in one poetion to soften the rolls to my
liking - so I drink the second container as a small bowl of soup. Bv)=

Title: Kidney Bean Salad
Categories: Salads, Beans, Vegetables
Yield: 8 Servings
75 oz Red Kidney Beans; drained,
- (5 sm cans)
1 c White onion; chopped
1/2 c Celery; chopped in sm pieces
1/3 c Sweet pickle relish
1/2 c Green salad olives w/pimento
- chopped (optional) *
MMMMM--------------------------DRESSING-------------------------------
1/2 c Cider Vinegar
1/2 c Sugar
1 lg Egg; lightly beaten
2 ts (or more) dry mustard
MMMMM-----------------------GARNISH (OPT)----------------------------
1 lg (to 2 lg) hard boiled eggs;
- peeled, sliced, chopped,
- and sprinkled over to
- finish
Combine the kidney beans, onion, celery, and pickle
relish in a large bowl, blending well, then set aside.
Combine the vinegar, sugar, egg and mustard in 1-quart
saucepan, blending well, then cook over low heat,
stirring constantly, 7 minutes or until the mixture
thickens. Remove from the heat. Pour the dressing
mixture over the vegetables, tossing gently to coat
well.
Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours before serving.
* I like the addition of the olives as they add a bit
more colour and a different layer of flavour to the
dish. My mom didn't do this - but, I do sometimes.
