If I cooked and baked as well as you do, I'm sure I'd be twice my ideal weight! At sugaring off time, we make fèves au lard (baked beans). Recipes vary, but ingredients typically include beans, molasses or brown sugar, sometimes ketchup, and bacon or lard. I don't care for them much, but my husband loves them for breakfast with eggs and bacon.

Ha!

Those beans sound like they would do great in the woodfired oven. Nice tradition. I have a recipe for beans that includes maple syrup (and ginger).

This makes me want to build a brick oven outside our house, as I have always loved cooking with fire. I watched the Francis Mallman episode from Mind of a Chef, and he cooks everything over an open fire. For weeks after watching it I would stoke a fire in our fire pit and tuck winter squash in the coals, or drop eggplants right in the flame to char them into submission. I cooked an entire meal in one of my cast iron skillets set directly over the fire and i will never forget how good that all tasted. There's just something about fire and food that draws me in.

It somehow makes everything taste better.
