Allow beans to soak in the refrigerator overnight. Drain the beans. In a 2-quart heavy bottom pot, add 2 bay leaves, 1 tbsp olive oil, vegetable broth and additional water to cover the beans by 1 inch. Bring to a boil; de-foam the beans with a slotted spoon after about the first 15 minutes of cooking and occasionally thereafter. Lower heat, cover and simmer on moderately low heat for 45 minutes. Stir very gently occasionally, adding more water if necessary to keep them covered. After 45 minutes remove beans from heat and allow to cool in the liquid until needed. (They will finish cooking with the rabbit.) STEP 2 This species originated from the mountains of Central America. It was most likely cultivated in the highlands of Mexico and Guatemala around 2000 BC.

Just needs crusty bread to go with it, maybe a crisp green salad. Or, again, it’d be an excellent side dish for some white or oily pink fish. Slow cook in a frying pan with garlic, as a delicious accompaniment to roast lamb, or simply rinse and toss with olive oil and lemon for a healthy and heartening summer salad.

It differs from the common bean ( P. vulgaris) in several respects: the cotyledons stay in the ground during germination, and the plant is a perennial vine with tuberous roots (though it is frequently treated as an annual in colder climates).Using sharp kitchen shears or a heavy chef’s knife, cut the rabbit into small pieces through the bone. Cut the hind legs into 3 pieces, the front leg in half and the body lengthwise and then into 6-8 pieces. Pat the rabbit pieces dry with paper towels and season with sea salt and pepper. Add to casserole with 1 tbsp more of olive oil. Sauté rabbit over medium-high heat, turning frequently until nicely golden on all sides. Remove to the plate with chorizo. STEP 4 The seeds of the plant can be used fresh or as dried beans. The pods are eaten whole while young and not yet fibrous, though they tend to have a rougher surface than the common bean. The starchy roots of this perennial are eaten in Mesoamerica. [13] My suggestion for them in On the Side is that they’re warmed gently with thinly sliced courgettes before mixing through a tapenade. Great with white fish, pink oily fish and more. Of course you knew that already because you’ve bought the book. But I also recently used them in a recipe for Borough Market’s magazine, Market Life, which is set out below.

Phaseolus coccineus, known as runner bean, [2] scarlet runner bean, [2] or multiflora bean, [2] is a plant in the legume family, Fabaceae. Another common name is butter bean, [3] [4] [5] which, however, can also refer to the lima bean, a different species. Monjardin organic Judion beans are produced in Navarra in northern Spain. They are prepared with only water and a little salt, cooked in the same manner as the Spanish do at home. No soaking required, these butter beans are cooked gently to retain their shape and texture.

The knife-shaped pods are normally green; however, there are very rare varieties bred by amateurs that have very unusual purple pods. An example of such a purple-podded runner bean is 'Aeron Purple Star'. [10] Serve the squid and tentacles, one per person, in shallow bowls or on deep plates, spooning the thin juices around them as you go. Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a large heavy bottom pan or casserole over medium-high heat. Add chorizo slices and lightly brown on all sides. Remove to a plate. STEP 3 Lentils don't need to be soaked, so they tend to be used in my kitchen more than any other of the pulses. Scattering them into a pan recently, I wondered whether they could be substituted for mince in a ragu bolognaise. The answer turned out to be an emphatic yes, though I missed out the usual tomato purée and felt that garlic was unnecessary on this occasion. By the time I had softened the edges with crème fraîche and added a slug of mellowing balsamic vinegar, I had a pasta sauce worth the trouble. It is barely eligible to be called a ragu but is none the worse for that.

[16] P. coccineus subsp. darwinianus is a cultivated subspecies, commonly referred to as the botil bean in Mexico. I use the bottled Judion beans available from Spanish grocers and some delicatessen for this, but canned butter beans are easier to find, and work perfectly, too.
