Yield Makes about 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound dried cannellini beans
2 sprigs fresh sage
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
6 cloves garlic, skin-on, crushed
1 carrot
1 rib celery
1 onion, quartered
1 tablespoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • Rinse beans thoroughly and transfer to a large stockpot. Add enough cold water to cover by at least 2 inches. Let stand 6 to 12 hours (refrigerate if air is too warm).
  • Drain beans and return to stockpot with 16 cups water. Place sage, rosemary, and garlic in a 6-inch piece of cheesecloth; tie with kitchen twine to enclose and add to pot along with carrot, celery, and onion. Bring water to a low simmer over medium-low heat and cook for 30 minutes. Season with salt and continue cooking until tender, 15 minutes to 1 1/2 hours more.
  • Remove cheesecloth packet and vegetables, and drain.
