This is a classic recipe! I also grew up in Massachusetts and have had this at many different restaurants around town. I even see it at the local grocery stores now-a-days labeled as Boston Bean Dip. When I make it, I like to put about 1/2 the beans into a food processor to smooth out the consistency. Very yummy!

Thank you so much for this recipe. I also grew up in New England and this bean relish was served at a local Scituate restaurant. I started thinking about it and couldn't get it out of my head and then I saw this recepe and said...THATS IT!!! Yeah, It's so good and easy. My favorite is served with good old ritz style crackers. Thanks again, Mary
