Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups dried large white beans (such as gigante or corona), soaked overnight 3 ounces Parmesan with rind
3 ounces Parmesan with rind
1 onion, quartered
1 head garlic, halved crosswise
Kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds broccoli (about 3 small heads), coarsely chopped
1/2 cup olive oil, divided
Freshly ground black pepper
4 anchovy fillets packed in oil, drained, finely chopped
2 wide strips lemon zest, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Drain beans and place in a large heavy pot. Remove rind from Parmesan and add rind along with onion and garlic to beans. Pour in water to cover by 2"; season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, adding water as needed to keep beans submerged, until beans are tender, about 2 hours. Let cool. Discard vegetables and Parmesan rind, then drain.
  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Toss broccoli with 1/4 cup oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast, tossing occasionally, until tender and lightly charred, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
  • Finely chop half of broccoli and toss in a large bowl with anchovies, lemon zest, lemon juice, and beans. Shave half of Parmesan over and add remaining broccoli and 1/4 cup oil; toss and season with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired. Shave remaining Parmesan over.

This recipe was a bit too sour for my taste. The charred broccoli and Parmesan cheese were good, but the white beans were a bit too sour. I think next time I'll try using a different type of bean.

Easy to make and very tasty. I used frozen broccoli and it worked out great. The charred flavor really shines through. The white beans and Parmesan cheese add a nice creamy texture and flavor. Overall, a great dish that I will definitely make again.

This recipe was absolutely delicious! The charred broccoli added a smoky, slightly bitter flavor that complemented the creaminess of the white beans perfectly. The Parmesan cheese added a nice touch of umami. I will definitely be making this again!
