Beans, Broad or Windsor, with Ham or Bacon

This is a very popular dish. The beans must be boiled separately and not with the ham. They should be young, and shelled only just before cooking. Put them into boiling water with a little salt, boil very quickly, drain, and pour parsley sauce over them. Place the ham on the beans. Time, fifteen to twenty minutes to boil. Probable cost, 6d. to 8d. per peck. Sufficient for six or seven persons.
