Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for serving
6 oz. pancetta, minced
3 onions, minced
8 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
3 cups low sodium chicken broth
3 cups water
1 lb. dried great northern or cannellini beans, 2 1/2 cups, picked over, salt soaked and rinsed
1 parmesan cheese rind, optional
2 bay leaves
1 sprig fresh rosemary
salt and pepper
grated parmesan cheese for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium high heat til shimmering. Add pancetta and cook til lightly browned and crisp, about 8 minutes.

  • 4. Salt Soaked Beans: Pick through and rinse beans. For every pound of beans, dissolve 2 Tbsp. salt in 4 quart cold water. Mix beans and salt water in large container and let beans soak at room temperature for at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours. Drain beans, discarding the soaking liquid and rinse well before cooking. The salt tenderizes the otherwise tough and chewy beans. For quick salt soaking, pick through an rinse beans. For every pound of beans, dissolve 3 Tbsp. salt in 2 quarts boiling water.
