Soak one cupful of dried lima beans over night; drain, put on to boil (using boiling water), add salt, boil about an hour.
Make a sauce of 3 tablespoons of bacon drippings and 2 tablespoons of flour, blend, and add enough cold water to make a thin sauce. Boil a few minutes, add beans, and allow to simmer about 10 minutes.
