String Beans, With Acid Dressing. Mrs. W. H. Eckhart
Cook wax beans in salted water with a little salt pork. When the beans are tender, take out and drain. Let a few bits of breakfast bacon brown in a skillet, then put in a half pint of good vinegar and a spoonful of sugar (omit the sugar if you prefer the pure acid); let boil; add an onion, sliced fine; pour over the beans, and mix well before serving.
