Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
Rinse the judiones beans thoroughly and place them in a large bowl. Cover with plenty of cold water and let them soak overnight, or for at least 12 hours.
Nota bucătarului: Soaking helps the beans cook more evenly and reduces cooking time.
- 2
The next day, drain the soaked beans and rinse them again. Set aside.
- 3
In a large pot or Dutch oven, add the soaked judiones beans, pork belly, chorizo, serrano ham bone, and bay leaves. Cover everything with fresh cold water, ensuring there is about 2 inches of water above the ingredients.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Starting with cold water helps the beans cook more evenly and prevents their skins from bursting.
- 4
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 1.5 hours, or until the beans are starting to become tender.
Aproximativ 1 oră 30 min.
Nota bucătarului: Skim off any foam that rises to the surface during the initial boiling.
- 5
While the beans are simmering, prepare the sofrito. Heat the olive oil in a separate frying pan over medium heat.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 6
Add the yellow onion and carrot to the pan and cook gently until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: Cook slowly to allow the vegetables to sweeten without browning too much.
- 7
Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Be careful not to burn the garlic, as it can turn bitter.
- 8
Add the grated tomato and sweet paprika to the sofrito. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomato has reduced and darkened slightly.
Aproximativ 7 min.
Nota bucătarului: The paprika should cook briefly to release its flavor but not burn.
- 9
Once the beans are partially tender, remove the pork belly, chorizo, and serrano ham bone from the pot. Set them aside to cool slightly.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 10
Remove the meat from the ham bone and discard the bone. Cut the pork belly, chorizo, and blood sausage into bite-sized pieces.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: The blood sausage is delicate, so handle it carefully.
- 11
Add the prepared sofrito and the cut pork belly and chorizo back into the pot with the beans. Stir well to combine.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 12
Continue to simmer the stew for another 45-60 minutes, or until the beans are very tender and the broth has thickened to your liking. Add the blood sausage for the last 10-15 minutes of cooking.
Aproximativ 1 oră
Nota bucătarului: If the stew becomes too thick, add a little more water or broth. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
- 13
Serve hot in deep bowls, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
