Recipe by Jeremy Fox When your beans are tender, take them off the heat and focus on the cooking liquid, doctoring it with good olive oil, salt, and pepper, tasting and seasoning it until the liquid itself is straight-up delicious.

Ingredients

1 pound dried gigante, baby lima, or cannellini beans, or chickpeas, soaked in water overnight, drained
1 onion, halved
2 carrots, peeled, halved crosswise
2 celery stalks, halved crosswise
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
Olive oil (for drizzling)

Instructions

Place beans, onion, carrots, and celery in a large pot and add cold water to cover by several inches. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer very gently until beans are cooked almost all the way through, about 1 1/2 hours. Season with salt and continue to cook, adding more water if needed to keep beans submerged, until tender (outside skin should still be intact), 45 –60 minutes. Discard onion, carrots, and celery.
Transfer beans and broth to a serving dish or a large bowl; season very generously with salt (start with 2 Tbsp.) and pepper and drizzle with oil.
