Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Beans

Soak the giant white beans in water for at least 8 hours or overnight. Drain and rinse before using.

2

Sauté Aromatics

In a large oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

3

Add Tomatoes and Beans

Add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juices), vegetable broth, soaked giant beans, bay leaves, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

4

Bake the Mixture

Bring the mixture to a simmer. Once simmering, cover the pot and transfer it to a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C). Bake for 1 hour.

5

Finish and Serve

After 1 hour, remove the pot from the oven. Check the beans for tenderness; if they need more time, return to the oven for an additional 15-30 minutes. Once done, remove bay leaves, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
