These Tuscan beans are a testament to how humble ingredients, especially garlic, can create culinary magic!
Ingredients
Instructions
Prepare the Beans
If using dried cannellini beans, soak them overnight and then cook until tender. If using canned beans, rinse them thoroughly under cold water and drain well.
Sauté Aromatics
In a large skillet or pot, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the thinly sliced garlic and fresh sage leaves. Cook gently for about 3-5 minutes, or until the garlic is golden and fragrant, and the sage leaves are crispy. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Combine Ingredients
Add the rinsed and drained cannellini beans to the skillet. If using, stir in the diced tomatoes. Pour in the vegetable broth or water.
Simmer and Season
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the liquid to slightly reduce. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust liquid consistency as desired; add a little more broth if it's too dry, or simmer longer if too watery.
Serve
Ladle the hot Tuscan White Beans into bowls. Serve immediately with plenty of crusty bread to sop up the delicious garlicky sauce.
