- 1 pound dried Great Northern Beans, soaked overnight
- 5 cups water
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons roasted walnut oil
- 1 bay leaf
- about 5 allspice berries
- pink Himalayan sea salt (I'm obsessed with this salt right now but any sea salt will be just fine.)
In a large Dutch oven, combine all of the ingredients. (You want to use a nice amount of salt.) Cover and bring to a boil. Once it boils, uncover and lower the heat to low. Simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. The water evaporates and it becomes a creamy almost mash. Discard the bay leaf and allspice and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve with an extra drizzle of olive or walnut oil and a little fresh ground black pepper. This is nice as a main meal when served with rice and sauteed spinach with garlic. This is great to have in the fridge as a quick side dish. Serves about 4.
