Guest guest Posted May 22, 2008 Report Posted May 22, 2008 One of my favorite combonations has to be white beans and sage. Hope you like this recipe......Mari White Beans with Tomatoes & Sage 1 pound dried Great Northern or other small white beans 1 bunch fresh sage leaves 6 clove garlic, peeled 1/2 cup olive oil 1/4 cup fresh sage, coarsely chopped 2 tablespoons garlic, coarsely chopped 8 medium tomatoes, peeled, coarsely chopped Place beans in heavy large saucepan. Add enough water to cover by 3 inches. Add 1 bunch sage and 6 garlic cloves. Soak overnight. Bring beans to boil in soaking liquid. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until tender, about 1 hour. Drain. Discard sage and garlic. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped sage and chopped garlic and sauté until garlic is golden, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Add beans to saucepan. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serves 6 to 8. Quote

I wouldn't add anything to it, though: this is one of those " less is more " recipes, where additional ingredients would actually subtract from the flavor rather than add to it. Alex Quote

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2008 Report Posted May 23, 2008 How much sage is " a bunch " ? I grow most of my sage rather than buying it, and even then I've never thought of the plastic containers of sage as " a bunch " . -ginger just outside Boston with sage that overwintered in a pot outside and is trying to flower!
