SIMPLE BEANS ON TOAST



Simple Beans on Toast image

These utterly simple beans come from Steve Sando, the owner of Rancho Gordo, which is known for its heirloom bean varieties. You can use any kind of dried bean (cannellini is pictured here); do not used canned beans. This recipe leans on great ingredients, which don't need much help, and lets them shine. That means you should use the best you've got, right down to the drizzle of olive oil that finishes the dish. If you do want to dress them up a bit, add a bay leaf at the beginning of cooking, and a sprig of thyme or rosemary during the last hour or so of cooking.

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for finishing
3 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 medium white or yellow onion, finely chopped
1 medium carrot, peeled and finely chopped
1 medium stalk celery, finely chopped
1 pound dried heirloom beans, picked over and rinsed
2 teaspoons kosher salt
8 large slices crusty bread, cut 1/2-inch thick
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
Flaky sea salt and ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the garlic, onion, carrot and celery and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are soft and fragrant but not browned, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the beans and enough water to cover by about 2 inches. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil; cook for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to a very gentle simmer (bubbles just barely breaking the surface), partly cover and cook until the pot stops smelling like the aromatics and starts smelling like the beans, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Add more water if necessary to keep the beans fully submerged. Gently stir in kosher salt and continue cooking until the beans are creamy in texture but not bursting, 10 to 45 minutes more.
  • Drain the beans, reserving the tasty cooking liquid for another purpose, such as a base for soup or a vehicle for egg poaching. You can store leftover beans in their cooking liquid in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • Toast the bread and then butter each piece. Spoon about 1/2 cup beans onto each piece of toast and coarsely crush with a fork. Divide the remaining whole beans among the toasts (about 1/4 cup per toast). Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper to taste.

SMOKY BEANS AND GREENS ON TOAST



Smoky Beans and Greens on Toast image

Beans and greens are great on almost every carb: in tortillas as tacos, over rice, on flatbread. They're also good without any carb at all, served in a bowl as a side. But whenever skillet-fried toast is an option, I take it. This is dinner food for me, but it also makes a good brunch with a fried egg on each plate.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (1-inch-thick) slices crusty country bread
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 ounces (about 4 strips) smoked bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons smoked paprika, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
1 large bunch or 2 small bunches (about 8 ounces total) lacinato kale, stems re-moved and leaves torn into medium-size pieces, washed, and shaken dry (there should be a little water still clinging to the leaves)
3 1/2 cups drained Cannellini Beans with Sweet Paprika and Garlic or 2 (15-ounce) cans white beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups bean broth or water

Steps:

  • Heat a large, heavy (preferably cast-iron) skillet over medium. Brush the bread on both sides with the olive oil. Lay the bread in the skillet and cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula, until crisp and golden brown, about 90 seconds per side. (If your slices are large, you may have to do this in two batches.) Set the bread aside.
  • Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring frequently, until it has browned a little and rendered at least a tablespoon of fat, about 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it has softened and turned golden, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, paprika, thyme (if using), red pepper flakes, and, if you're using canned beans, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and cook, stirring, for a minute or two.
  • Add the slightly wet kale in batches, using tongs to stir the leaves into the onion mixture; wait for one handful of kale to wilt and shrink before adding the next. When the last of the greens has been added, add the beans and broth. Raise the heat and let the beans and greens simmer for a minute or two, just to warm the beans and bring the flavors together. Taste and add more kosher salt if necessary.
  • Serve the greens and beans over the toast in wide, shallow bowls, dusted with a little more smoked paprika.

CHEESY BEANS ON TOAST



Cheesy Beans on Toast image

This is my favourite version of a British classic. You can't beat beans on toast for a quick, cheap meal! It is important to use Heinz baked beans or some other brand that uses tomato sauce as the base, not barbecue sauce as is the American standard. Most US grocery stores have Heinz or Batchelors in the International aisle.

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups grated Cheddar
2 cups grated Monterey Jack
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) butter, softened
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 crusty French loaf

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the Cheddar, Monterey Jack, mayonnaise, Parmesan, butter, salt, pepper and seasoned salt.
  • Cut the loaf in half lengthwise, then into thirds or fourths. Evenly spread the cheese mixture onto the bread pieces. Wrap each piece in a foil "purse," leaving a little room at the top between the cheese and the foil.
  • The bread can either be frozen for later, or baked right away. If baking right away, place on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes. If cooking from frozen, bake on a baking sheet at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes.

CHEESY EGGS ON TOAST



Cheesy Eggs on Toast image

You don't even need a toaster to make perfect toast. Crisping bread in a skillet - in melted butter, of course - gives it a tasty brown crunch and leaves you with a hot pan ready to scramble eggs. Be sure to swipe up all the butter and crumbs with the toasted bread when you take it out to keep the eggs nice and golden. Because more butter is added to the pan at the same time as the eggs, it melts slowly into the eggs while you stir them, leaving you with a creamy mix that ends up even creamier when cheese is melted in at the very end.

Categories     breakfast, brunch, easy

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 large eggs
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 slice bread
1/4 cup shredded cheese (Cheddar, Monterey Jack or a blend)

Steps:

  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Beat with a fork until evenly yellow. Leave the bowl next to the stove while you make the toast.
  • In a small nonstick skillet, melt a thin slice of the butter over medium-low heat. Swipe the bread in the melted butter to soak it all up. Let sit until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add another thin slice of butter to the pan then flip the bread, swiping it in the newly melted butter until it's all soaked up. Turn the heat to the lowest setting and let the bread sit until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the remaining butter and the eggs and cook, stirring gently and constantly with a wooden spoon, until the butter melts and the eggs are half wet and half solid, 15 to 45 seconds. Turn off the heat, add the cheese and continue stirring until the mixture is creamy but no longer wet, about 30 to 45 seconds. Scrape onto the toast right away and enjoy.
