Rancho Beans Preparation
Pick over beans for debris; rinse well and drain. Place in a 4 quart pot and add water to cover. Bring to a boil, simmer 3 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let soak for at least 4 hours. Pour off water. Add 5 cups fresh water, or just enough to cover beans. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to maintain a gentle bubbling. Add ham bone, onion and garlic. Partially cover (a whisper of steam should escape.) Cook 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until beans are not sticking; give them a stir. Keep a kettle with hot water on stove – if cooking liquid drops below the level of the beans, add no more than 1/2 cup water. When beans are tender, add chile powder, salt and pepper. Simmer 30 minutes longer. Scoop out 2 cups beans with a little cooking liquid. Roughly puree in blender on low speed. Stir puree back into beans and cook for a few minutes, stirring, until beans have thickened.
