Steps:
- Heat up some olive oil in a soup pot on medium heat and sauté the onions in it until soft and translucent. Add the garlic for another minute until fragrant. Now add the beans, tomatoes, stock, salt and pepper, twigs of rosemary and optionally a parmesan rind and chili flakes for some heat.
- Increase the heat to bring it to boil, then reduce it to low and let simmer for 20 minutes. It will have thickened significantly by then.
- Now add the kale leaves to it and continue simmering for 2 or 3 more minutes. In the meantime remove the rosemary and the parmesan rind.
- Divide the stew in bowls and sprinkle with fresh parsley and freshly grated parmesan. Serve it with quinoa or rice (for stew) or big chunks of freshly baked bread (for soup).

Steps:
- In a large bowl, soak beans overnight in plenty of cold water.
- The next day, strain the beans and add to a large pot. Cover with fresh cold water, add bouquet garni, halved onion, and carrot, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and simmer until beans are soft but not mushy, 45 minutes to 2 hours. Just before the end of cooking, add salt to taste.
- Remove bouquet garni and vegetables and discard. Reserve cooking liquid for later.
- Meanwhile, in a wide saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the oil. Add the chopped onion and cook gently until soft but not colored, 6 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Stir in tomatoes, cooked beans, and rosemary. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, adding some of the bean liquid if the stew is dry. Season well with salt, black pepper, and sugar, to taste. The mixture should be loose and juicy but not swimming in liquid.☞TESTER TIP: Any cooked bean liquid that doesn't get used in the stew can be frozen and used as a vegetable broth.

ROASTED TOMATO AND WHITE BEAN STEW
This hearty, flexible stew comes together with pantry ingredients and delivers layers of flavors. Cherry tomatoes, roasted in a generous glug of olive oil to amplify their sweetness, lend a welcome brightness to this otherwise rich dish. Onion, garlic and red-pepper flakes form the backbone of this dish, to which white beans and broth are added, then simmered until thick. While this stew is lovely on its own, you could also add wilt-able greens such as kale, escarole or Swiss chard at the end, and toasted bread crumbs on top. The dish is vegan as written, but should you choose to top your bowl with a showering of grated pecorino or Parmesan, it would most likely work well in your favor.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, gently toss together the parsley and lemon zest with your hands until well combined; set aside.
- In a large baking dish or on a sheet pan, toss the tomatoes with 1/4 cup oil and thyme; season well with salt and pepper. Roast tomatoes until they have collapsed and begin to turn golden around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.
- When the tomatoes are almost done roasting, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large (12-inch), deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium. Add the onion, garlic and red-pepper flakes and cook until the onion is softened and the garlic is fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the rinsed beans and broth and bring to a simmer. With the back of a spoon or spatula, gently smash about ½ cup of the beans so they slightly thicken the broth. If you want a thicker stew, crush some more of the beans. Season with salt and pepper.
- When the tomatoes are finished roasting, add them directly to the stew along with any juices that have been released. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes more so the flavors become friendly; season to taste with salt.
- Ladle into shallow bowls. Top each serving with some of the lemon-parsley mixture and drizzle with some more olive oil, and season with flaky salt, if you like. Serve with toasted bread.

Tips:
- Soaking the beans overnight is recommended to reduce cooking time and improve their texture. If you're short on time, you can quick-soak the beans by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them soak for 1 hour.
- Use a variety of beans to add flavor and texture to your stew. Cannellini beans, Great Northern beans, and navy beans are all good choices.
- Don't overcook the beans. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
- Add the tomatoes and rosemary towards the end of cooking to preserve their flavor.
- Season the stew to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices, such as garlic, oregano, or thyme.
- Serve the stew with crusty bread, rice, or pasta.
