German Sweet and Sour Green Beans
2 15oz cans green beans, drained, juices reserved
3 slices bacon, chopped
1 cup onion, chopped
1 Tbsp flour
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, less if you don't like it real tart
(start with 2 Tbsp and add more to taste. My mother used white
vinegar but watch how much you use)
2 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Cook bacon in a medium skillet over med/hi heat until well browned.
Add onion and cook until translucent. Stir in flour and cook 2
minutes more.
Pour vinegar and 3/4 cup of the green bean liquid into the pan. Add
sugar, salt and pepper, stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce to a
simmer and stir in the green beans. Cook on low until beans are
heated through.
