An easy summer side dish, served warm or cold

Ingredients

• 0.5 lb big white beans (royal corona, cassoulet, cannellini, etc.), cooked
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Freshly cracked black pepper
• Flaky sea salt
• A little bit of white wine vinegar
• Some garlic and fresh herbs (parsley and oregano are my faves) made into a pulp
• A bit of grated asiago cheese, optional

Directions

1. Soak beans overnight with a pinch of baking soda
2. Cook beans, then strain and rinse any herbs or veggies from cooking off the beans
3. Gently stir the rest of the seasonings into the beans
4. Allow to set for a bit before serving

Notes

• Dried herbs are fine, but let them sit in the marinade to give flavor to the rest of the dish.
• Very flexible for substituting other flavor profiles, bean types, etc.
