Old Fashioned String Beans
["canned or fresh snapped beans", "salt", "pepper", "sugar", "bacon drippings", "cut up potatoes (if desired)"]
["Place string beans in heavy pot with plenty of water or bean juice from canned beans. Add salt, pepper, sugar and bacon drippings to taste. Add cut up, peeled potatoes if desired. Boil and cook down until beans start to shrivel up. Turn down heat and simmer until done like you want them. This will take a couple of hours. Be sure to add more water if necessary."]
