I cook for a group of beanis soup enjoyers but I'm looking for recipes that are a little more seasonally appropriate

Saute up some zucchinis until they're nice and caramelized, then toss some white beans in garlic powder and saute until golden. Add in the zucchs and enjoy as is or serve over pasta.

Take cooked white beans and make a salad with parsley, shallot, celery, cucumber, salt, and pepper and a vinaigrette with lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. Add chopped cherry tomatoes if it tickles your fancy.

One pound of pinto beans soaked overnight.

Drain the beans and save the water.

Put some fat in a pot and sauté an onion until it’s nice and translucent.

Chop up a couple of chipotles and throw them in there. Then do the same with a couple of anchos, probably without the seeds this time.

Put the beans and 4 cups of the bean water in the pot with the onions and peppers. Throw in like three or five thinly sliced large garlic cloves, a few bay leaves, and some salt and pepper, and maybe some bouillon too. Bring it all to a simmer and keep it there with the lid on until the beans are nice and soft. Probably like 1.5-2 hours-ish?

Oh yeah almost forgot, slop some cider vinegar in there right about nowish, maybe a quarter or third cup or something, I don’t actually measure almost any of this stuff.

Throw in like a third cup of dark brown sugar and however much molasses feels right. Put the whole pot on a smoker or in the oven at 250-300ish without the lid for a handful of hours, stirring occasionally until it’s all thickened up and stewy, probably another few hours or something.

Now you have some bbq beans. I think it usually ends up like 4.5 pints or so by the end.

Basically the recipe is “do the right thing with the right amount of stuff until it’s done” I guess

This shit slaps I used cannelini beans I believe since I couldn't find the ones the author used

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

cannelini beans are super underrated

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago

Truly. I love white beans, I think cannellini, pinto and black eyed peas are my favorite legumes. Pink eyed peas also rule

Tofu is to beans the way cheese is to milk.
