Slow Cooked Tomato And Herb White Beans Recipe Epicuriouscom

Steps:

• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium; cook shallot until just softened and golden, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes with their juices, 1/4 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper, and 1/4 cup water. Increase heat to high, bring to a boil, and cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add beans and 1/4 cup Roasted Garlic Herb Sauce, and cook, stirring, until warmed through, 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust salt if needed, then divide bean mixture between 2 large, shallow bowls.
• Wipe out skillet. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in skillet over medium-high. Add shrimp and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Cook, stirring often, until shrimp is cooked through and starting to take on a little color on both sides, about 3 minutes. Divide shrimp between bowls with beans; drizzle with additional sauce. Serve with toast alongside.

Steps:

• Cook beans:
• Cover beans with cold water by 2 inches in a bowl and soak at room temperature at least 8 hours or quick-soak (see cooks' note, below). Drain well in a colander.
• Blanch onions in boiling salted water , 1 minute, then drain and peel.
• Cover beans with cold water by about 1 inch in a 5- to 6-quart pot and bring to a boil. Add onions and simmer, partially covered, skimming froth as necessary, until beans and onions are tender, 40 minutes to 1 hour. Stir in salt and let stand (in cooking liquid), uncovered.
• Roast tomatoes while beans are cooking:
• Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 500°F.
• Toss tomato halves and cherry tomatoes with salt, sugar, and oil in a shallow 3-quart baking dish, then arrange tomato halves cut sides up. Roast tomatoes, uncovered, until large tomatoes are very tender with brown patches and cherry tomatoes are falling apart, 35 to 50 minutes.
• Assemble dish:
• Transfer warm beans and onions with a slotted spoon to a deep large platter. Arrange tomatoes decoratively on top of beans and pour tomato juices on top. Sprinkle with basil leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F. Using knife, make 9 slits in sides of tuna. Fill each with 1 clove, 1 coriander seed, and 1 garlic sliver; sprinkle tuna with salt and pepper. Heat oil in ovenproof pot over medium heat. Add onion and sauté 8 minutes; push to side of pot. Add tuna and sauté until brown on all sides, about 12 minutes. Scatter tomatoes, oregano, and remaining garlic slivers around tuna. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour vinegar over fish.
• Bake tuna uncovered until thermometer inserted into center registers 145°F for medium-rare, about 12 minutes. Transfer tuna to platter. Spoon tomato sauce over. Cool to room temperature. Slice tuna thinly and serve.

Steps:

• Place beans in heavy large pot. Pour in enough water to cover beans by 3 inches. Soak overnight. Drain beans.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in very large pot over medium heat. Add onion, thyme, and garlic; sauté 5 minutes. Add green cabbage, tomatoes, celery, and carrots; sauté 10 minutes. Add beans, 10 cups stock, potatoes, and basil. Bring to boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 1 hour. Add red cabbage and zucchini. Cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes longer. Uncover. Add toasted bread slices to soup and remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes. Stir in cheese. Divide soup among bowls. Top each serving with ground pepper and additional olive oil and serve.

Steps:

• Set the slow cooker to the sauté function. Add the oil and, when hot, add the onion and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until soft. Add the garlic, cumin, bay leaves and cinnamon and cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Add the chipotle in adobo, the brown sugar, vinegar, and tomato paste. Cook for another minute before adding the beans and stirring to coat. Pour over the stock and tomatoes, close the lid and set the heat to low. Cook for 10 hours, or overnight.
• You want the beans to be pliable and the liquid to have reduced to a thick and rich sauce. Remove the bay leaves and cinnamon before serving.
• Just before serving, prepare the prosciutto crumb. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the prosciutto slices on a baking tray lined with baking paper and drizzle over the balsamic glaze. Pop in the oven for 10 minutes, or until the prosciutto looks dark and golden. Remove and allow to cool, then blitz to a rough crumb in a food processor. Combine with the breadcrumbs, a drizzle of olive oil and a generous amount of salt and pepper.
• Serve bowls of beans topped with the prosciutto crumb, a chunk of avocado and the yogurt or sour cream, if using, and garnish with cilantro.

• Simmer beans until tender and soft but not mushy, about 45 minutes in bean pot or 35 to 40 minutes in saucepan. Remove from heat and cool beans, covered, 15 minutes. Stir in sea salt.
• Drain almost all cooking liquid from beans (reserve for making soup if desired) and season beans with sea salt and pepper to taste.
• Dress beans with oil at the table.
