    Can substitute ham hocks for salt pork. String the beans on a thread and hang up to dry. Before cooking, soak beans overnight and then simmer with meat for 3-4 hours.

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.
