I have been having a very hard time finding Ford hook Limas also.
Don't understand why. Not being a brand maven, it's not a
problem buying and serving store brands. Actually, they are very
available for most items.

We have tinkered with lima beans and have a nice variation on the
vegetable. The raspberry vinegar adds a nice "bite".

Lima Beans

vegetables

10 oz lima beans, frozen
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon cumin, or to taste
1 teaspoon raspberry vinegar
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 pinch sugar
1 tb pimentos, chopped

In a small saucepan, bring lima beans to a boil with the water. Cover
and
simmer for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally to break up beans.

Transfer beans and cooking liquid to food processor and add remaining
ingredients. Process until the consistency of smooth mashed potatoes.
Serve immediately and top with a few chopped pimento for color.

Yield: 4 servings
