Caesar-Style White Beans

Ingredients:

  • 1 (1 pound) bag of Camellia Brand Cannellini, Great Northern, or Navy (Pea) Beans, cooked and drained
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • Juice of two lemons
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
  • 1 teaspoon sea or other coarse-grind salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 baguette, sliced and toasted, for serving

Directions:

  1. Cook and drain the beans, and allow to cool.
  2. In a large bowl, add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, anchovy paste, Parmesan cheese, and garlic, mixing well.
  3. Fold in beans, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley — reserving a small amount of parsley for garnish.
  4. Mix ingredients well, but gently, to avoid breaking beans.
  5. Refrigerate for at least one hour, but overnight will produce an even richer flavor.
  6. Serve with slices of a toasted baguette or other hearty bread, and garnish with more chopped parsley.
