"This is my second order for your oregano and
I would like to say that it is the "BEST" I have ever used. It is better,
much better, than my own home grown oregano. I want to thank you people for
a superior product that I absolutely love and so do the friends I share it
with...God Bless"

- Tuscan Beans
- (Fagioli Toscana)
-

Ingredients:
2 and 1/2 cups dried white beans such as Great Northern or navy (1 lb), picked over and rinsed
10 cups water
2 fresh sage sprigs
1 bay leaf
1 head of garlic
1 tablespoon coarse sea salt
Extra virgin olive oil (preferably Tuscan)
Terracotta bean pot or heavy saucepan
Directions:
-
- If using a terra-cotta pot for the first time, soak it in water to cover at least 6 hours, then drain.
Put beans, water, sage, bay leaf, and whole head of garlic in bean pot.
Cover and slowly bring to a simmer over low heat; this can take 2 and 3/4 hours in bean pot or 1 hour in saucepan.
Simmer beans until tender and soft but not mushy, about 45 minutes in bean pot or 35 to 40 minutes in saucepan.
Remove from heat and cool beans, covered, 15 minutes. Stir in sea salt.
Drain almost all cooking liquid from beans (reserve for making soup if desired) and season beans with sea salt and pepper to taste.
Dress beans with oil at the table. Makes 6 servings.
