WHITE BEANS WITH CELERY



White Beans With Celery image

This dish is inspired by a Greek recipe from Diane Kochilas's "The Glorious Foods of Greece" that calls for giant white beans and about three times as much olive oil. I had regular white beans in my pantry and a bunch of celery left over from a recipe that called for only a couple of stalks (which happens so often). I love the textures here. The celery retains a little crunch, which contrasts nicely with the soft beans.

Time 2h20m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound (about 1 1/8 cups) white beans, rinsed, picked over and soaked for six hours or overnight in 1 quart water
Salt to taste
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
4 to 5 cups chopped celery, including the leaves
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 8-ounce can tomato sauce, or 2 tablespoons tomato paste diluted in 1 cup water
1/4 to 1/2 cup finely chopped parsley (to taste)
Juice of 1 to 2 lemons, to taste

Steps:

  • Drain the beans, and combine in a large saucepan with enough water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, add salt to taste, cover and simmer until the beans are just tender, about 45 minutes to an hour. Do not let the beans boil hard or they'll fall apart before they're cooked through.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet, and add the celery and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until it just begins to soften, about three minutes, and add the garlic. Stir together for a minute, until the garlic is fragrant, and remove from the heat.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Drain the beans over a bowl. Place in a large baking dish, preferably earthenware, and toss with the celery and garlic, the remaining olive oil and the tomato sauce or diluted tomato paste. Add enough of the drained broth to cover by an inch, and stir in the remaining olive oil. Cover the dish tightly with foil, and place in the oven. Bake one hour, or until the beans are soft and creamy.
  • Uncover the beans, stir, and add salt and pepper to taste. Add a tablespoon or 2 of lemon juice, or more if desired, and adjust salt and pepper. Serve hot, warm or room temperature, with a little more olive oil drizzled over the top if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, crisp green beans and celery: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them. Celery should be firm and have a vibrant green color.
  • Trim the green beans and celery: Remove the ends of the green beans and cut them into 1-inch pieces. Cut the celery into 1/2-inch slices.
  • Blanch the green beans and celery: This helps to preserve their color and crispness. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and celery and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the vegetables and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Make the dressing: While the vegetables are blanching, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.
  • Combine the vegetables and dressing: Drain the green beans and celery from the ice water and pat them dry. Add them to a large bowl along with the dressing. Toss to coat.
  • Serve immediately or chill: This salad can be served immediately or chilled for later. If chilling, cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Green beans and celery are a classic combination that is perfect for a refreshing and healthy salad. This recipe is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For a more tangy salad, add a little more vinegar or lemon juice. For a creamy salad, add a little more mayonnaise or sour cream. And for a spicy salad, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. No matter how you choose to make it, this salad is sure to be a hit!
