Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beans

    Soak the dried white beans in water overnight. Drain and rinse the beans before cooking.

  2. 2

    Cook the Beans

    In a large pot, add the soaked beans and cover them with fresh water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the beans are tender. Drain and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Garlic and Rosemary

    In a separate skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped rosemary, sautéing until the garlic is fragrant and slightly golden, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked beans to the skillet with the sautéed garlic and rosemary. Season with salt and black pepper, and drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Gently toss to combine and heat through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the white beans to a serving dish, drizzle with additional olive oil if desired, and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
