Let the beans soak overnight in enough water to cover.

 

Saute the onions, garlic,and half of the scallions in the oil. Rinse

the beans and add to the onions, stir well, and add about 6 cups of

water and the celery. Let come to a boil, then turn down and simmer

about 2 hours. Check it every once and a while, and add water if

necessary. Towards the end of the cooking time, stir and mash the

softest beans against the edge of the pot to thicken it all up. Add

the salt.

 

Serve the beans with a big bowl of rice and a bowl of the remaining

chopped green scallions.

 

If you would like, you can make tofu fat-back and add it to these

beans the last 30 minutes or so of cooking time.
