Whitebeanpate Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter or oil a 5-cup pâté tureen or baking dish, or a bread pan.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat in a medium skillet. Add the onion and carrot. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add 2 cloves of the garlic. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about one minute. Stir in the parsley and sage. Remove from the heat.
• Turn on a food processor fitted with the steel blade, and drop in the remaining clove of garlic. When the garlic is chopped and adhering to the sides of the bowl, stop the food processor and scrape down the bowl. Place the beans and eggs in the food processor. Turn it on, and add the lemon juice and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Process until smooth. Add the onion mixture, and pulse to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Scrape into the prepared baking dish, and cover tightly.
• Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until set and the top is just beginning to color. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool. For best results, refrigerate overnight. Serve at room temperature or cold.

Steps:

• Lightly grease a serving bowl with butter.
• Pour olive oil into a skillet; add white pepper, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Place the skillet over medium heat and warm the spices until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir shallot into the warm oil and spices; cook and stir until the shallot begins to change color, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Stir cannellini beans and tomato paste into the shallot and spice mixture. Cook and stir while mashing the beans thoroughly, about 5 minutes.
• Stir sherry and soy sauce through the mashed bean mixture; cook until the liquid evaporates, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from heat. Stir melted butter through the bean mixture; season with salt. Pack the bean mixture into the prepared bowl.
• Chill in refrigerator at least 1 hour; garnish with parsley and paprika to serve.

Steps:

• Let the oil get heated in a skillet; add onion and garlic; saute, covered, for about 7 minutes or until golder; stir occasionally.
• Add the onion-garlic mixture and the remaining ingredients to the container of a food processor.
• Process until smooth; adjust seasoning to taste; transfer to a crock and pat it inches.

Steps:

• Cook 2 smashed garlic cloves and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes in olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, 1 minute. Add 1 chopped plum tomato and 1 sprig rosemary and cook 2 minutes. Add 2 cans drained, rinsed cannellini beans and cook, partially smashing the beans with a spoon, 5 minutes. Remove the rosemary. Stir in 1/2 cup water and some chopped parsley; season with salt. Sprinkle with parmesan and broil until golden. Drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place a medium saucepan coated with olive-oil cooking spray over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, and saute until translucent. Add 1 teaspoon rosemary, cannellini beans, and salt and pepper, and saute until very hot.
• Transfer bean mixture to the bowl of a food processor, add white-wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 3 tablespoons reserved bean liquid, and then puree until smooth.
• Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, remaining teaspoon rosemary, and remaining teaspoon olive oil in a small bowl, and stir until well combined.
• Place bean puree in an ovenproof bowl; top with the bread-crumb mixture. Transfer to oven; bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve hot with toast and assorted vegetables.

Steps:

• 1. Soak the beans overnight. Or place beans in a pot, cover with cold water and bring to a boil over high heat; remove from heat and set aside, covered, for 1 hour.
• 2. Drain the beans; transfer to a 2-quart pot with the diced onion, celery, carrot, smashed garlic, bay leaf, thyme sprigs, 5 cups of broth, salt, and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat; simmer until beans are very tender, about 90 minutes. If the mixture becomes dry, add some of the remaining broth.
• 3. Drain the beans; discard the thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Warm the beans in a pan over medium heat. Add the cream, thyme leaves, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Let simmer. Cook until the cream is reduced and is almost dry on the beans, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• 4. Puree the beans in a food processor, adding a few drops of oil. Adjust seasonings.

Steps:

• Stir ingredients for tomato relish together.
• Season with pepper, stir occasionally.
• In blender, combine beans, oil, thyme, lemon peel, lemon juice, garlic and salt.
• Whirl til smooth.
• Spoon bean pate into serving crock, or serve pate on toasts with relish.

Steps:

• A day ahead, rinse the beans and pick them over, discarding any broken or discolored ones. Cover them with water and soak them overnight at room temperature.
• On the day of serving, drain and change the water. Bring the beans to a boil, drain them and cover them with fresh water. Add the remaining ingredients, except the chicken stock, olive oil and thyme and simmer the beans until tender (one to two hours), stirring occasionally. Add more water if the beans start to get dry.
• Place half the beans in a food processor. Add half a cup of the chicken stock. Puree the beans and correct seasoning. Repeat with the remaining beans and chicken stock.
• Pour the puree into a serving dish and swirl the oil in on top. Garnish with a few leaves of fresh thyme.
