1
Place the salt pork cubes in a small saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes to remove excess salt, then drain and set aside.
Omtrent 10 min
Kokkens tips: This step is crucial for controlling the saltiness of the final dish, as salt pork is heavily cured.
2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the drained soaked beans, the boiled salt pork, chopped onion, bell pepper, celery, and minced garlic.
Omtrent 5 min
3
Pour in the water and add the first portion of Italian seasoning, the whole hot pepper, and the bay leaf. Stir everything together.
Omtrent 2 min
Kokkens tips: Leaving the hot pepper whole will infuse the dish with flavor without making it overwhelmingly spicy. You can remove it at any time.
4
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer gently.
Omtrent 10 min
5
Cook for 2 to 2.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender and the liquid has started to thicken.
Omtrent 2 t
Kokkens tips: If the mixture looks too dry at any point, add a splash of hot water.
6
Using the back of a spoon, mash about a cup of the beans against the side of the pot and stir them back into the mixture to create a creamier texture.
Omtrent 1 min
7
Remove and discard the bay leaf and the whole hot pepper. Stir in the final pinch of Italian seasoning.
Omtrent 1 min
8
Taste and season with salt and black pepper as needed. Serve hot over a bed of cooked rice.
Omtrent 1 min
Kokkens tips: Be cautious when adding salt, as the salt pork will have already seasoned the beans significantly.
