Pork Loin Roast with Sauerkraut : page 45

Good stuff and easy. Our bakje of sauerkraut got mashed in the sack and lost all its liquid, so there was no gravy. I forgot to add sliced apple to the pot, so I sautéed that (peeled) later and stirred it into the sauerkraut. All good.

Tuscan Beans Baked with Tuna and Lemon (Fagioli Stufati) : page 17

First of all, a good way to cook beans. Used my new, used, larger Romertopf. Soaked the beans in the pot overnight, then cooked them with salt two hours and a bit in the oven, with a one-time stir. Perfectly done.

To serve, the beans are mixed with a can of tuna, lemon juice, olive oil, and lots of black pepper. Some sliced red onion prettied it up a bit; some parsley would be nice too.

Contrary to what you usually hear, the beans are cooked with salt, and came out perfectly. Might use slightly less salt than the 2tsps asked.
