Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

  1. 1

    Soak the large white beans in cold water for at least 12 hours, or overnight. Ensure they are fully submerged.

    Aproximativ 12 ore

    Nota bucătarului: Soaking helps the beans cook more evenly and reduces cooking time.

  2. 2

    Drain the soaked beans and rinse them thoroughly under cold water.

    Aproximativ 2 min.

  3. 3

    Place the rinsed beans in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven.

    Aproximativ 1 min.

  4. 4

    Add the chorizo, morcilla asturiana, panceta, and serrano ham bone (if using) to the pot with the beans.

    Aproximativ 1 min.

  5. 5

    Pour enough water into the pot to cover all ingredients by at least 5 cm.

    Aproximativ 1 min.

  6. 6

    Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to low and skim off any foam that rises to the surface.

    Aproximativ 10 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Skimming helps keep the broth clear.

  7. 7

    Add the saffron threads and salt to the pot.

    Aproximativ 1 min.

  8. 8

    Cover the pot and simmer gently for 2 to 3 hours, or until the beans are very tender. Check occasionally and add more hot water if the liquid level drops too much.

    Aproximativ 2 ore 30 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Do not stir too vigorously, as this can break up the beans.

  9. 9

    Once the beans are tender, carefully remove the meats and ham bone from the pot.

    Aproximativ 2 min.

  10. 10

    Discard the ham bone. Slice the chorizo, morcilla, and panceta into thick rounds or chunks.

    Aproximativ 5 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Allow the meats to cool slightly for easier slicing.

  11. 11

    Return the sliced meats to the pot with the beans and simmer for another 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    Aproximativ 15 min.

  12. 12

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. The stew should be rich and slightly thick.

    Aproximativ 1 min.

  13. 13

    Serve hot, ideally in deep bowls.
