Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beans

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

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Herbs

    Stir in the crushed tomatoes, sage leaves, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Cook the Beans

    Add the soaked beans to the pot. Cover and simmer for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the beans are tender. Stir occasionally and add water if necessary to keep the mixture from drying out.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the beans are cooked through, remove from heat. Serve topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
