Fagioli all'Uccelletto

🌍 Italian, Tuscany Difficulty: ●●●○○


A Tuscan preparation of white beans stewed with sage and tomato. The beans must be tender but unbroken — overcooked beans turn to paste. The sage goes in whole; its camphor sharpens against the starchy richness of the cannellini.

  • 400g cannellini beans, cooked
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 4 sage leaves
  • 200g canned tomatoes
  • 4 tbsp olive oil

Method

  1. Sautéing — Sauté garlic and sage in oil until fragrant.
  2. Adding — Add tomatoes; cook 5 min.
  3. Adding — Add beans; simmer 15 min. Season.
