GIGANTE BEANS

Categories     side-dish

Time 13h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound gigante or corona beans
1 large onions, skin removed, root end left on, cut in 1/2
1 large or 2 small carrots, peeled and halved
2 ribs celery, broken in 1/2
3 cloves garlic
1 bundle thyme
3 bay leaves
1 piece slab bacon skin or prosciutto skin, or a couple slices bacon
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Soak the beans in water overnight.
  • Soooooooooooo...if you didn't think yesterday to soak your beans you can do the "quick soak" method, which is to put your beans in a pot covered by at least 2 inches of water. Bring the water to a boil, turn the heat off and let the pot sit until the water cools down naturally and then pick up the process as if you had soaked the beans overnight.
  • Strain the beans from the soaking water. Put the beans in a large pot and cover generously with water. Add the onions, carrot, celery, garlic, thyme, bay leaves and bacon skin. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer the beans until all the beans are soft, about 1 hour. Add more water if it reduces too much. Test the beans for doneness by doing the 5 bean test. Bite 5 beans, if they are all soft then they are done. Beans do NOT all cook at the same rate so the 5 bean test is important.
  • When the beans are cooked, remove the pot from the heat. Season the water generously with salt and let sit for 15 minutes. Transfer the beans to a serving bowl and serve. If not using the beans right away, store them in the refrigerator in their liquid.
  • Beans, beans the musical fruit...

ANGEL HAIR WITH BEANS AND TOMATOES



Angel Hair With Beans and Tomatoes image

I came up with this recipe when my daughter wasn't eating meat. I wanted a side dish that the rest of the family would like, while providing at least some protein with the beans for the one not eating meat. A thicker noodle would hold up to the weight of the tomato and beans better, but we like the taste of the angel hair pasta, so that is what I use.

Light, flaky and divine, there's a reason we call these biscuits angelic. This classic homemade angel biscuit recipe uses not one, but three types of leavening agents including yeast, baking powder and baking soda, resulting in the fluffiest biscuits imaginable. Whether you enjoy them for breakfast with a spoonful of jam or serve them as a side at the dinner table, these simple buns can go from kitchen to table in under an hour, making them an easy addition to any meal. To give these homemade angel biscuits their heavenly glow, brush them with melted butter the moment they come out of the oven.

Time 40m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 package regular or quick active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
2 tablespoons warm water (105° to 115°)
2 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening
About 1 cup buttermilk
Butter or margarine at room temperature, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°. Dissolve yeast in warm water; set aside.
  • Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in yeast mixture and just enough buttermilk so dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball.
  • Place dough on generously floured surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Knead lightly 25 to 30 times, sprinkling with flour if dough is too sticky. Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Brush with butter. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight: This will help them cook more evenly and reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a slow cooker: This is the easiest way to cook angel beans, and it results in tender, flavorful beans.
  • Add aromatics to the cooking liquid: This will help to infuse the beans with flavor. Common aromatics include onion, garlic, celery, and carrots.
  • Season the beans well: Don't be afraid to use salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, or bay leaves.
  • Cook the beans until they are tender: This may take some time, but it is important to be patient. Overcooked beans will be mushy and bland.

Conclusion:

Angel beans are a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. They are a good source of protein, fiber, and other nutrients. With a little planning and effort, you can easily cook angel beans at home. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying meal, give angel beans a try!
