This is random and off-topic, but I just saw goldfinches at my feeder and it made me think of sharing. I also bought a goldfinch feeder after you posted about it last spring. Not sure if you have a flower garden, but the goldfinches loved eating the seeds from my purple coneflowers after they bloomed.

My heart breaks with this new platform. I feel like everything in my life, everywhere I look, is now being monetized. I am torn. Of course I want really smart, amazing creators to be rewarded for their hard work, for their efforts. At the same time, I am continually being told I need to spend money to be inspired, to find comfort, to get at high quality information to help me be healthy. I just can't anymore - in terms of how much I have financially to share (with COVID now so much less than ever before) and in terms of wishing I could take part when I really can't. I see there is more available, if I could pay, and it makes a divide: the haves and the if onlys. As an if only, I will have to say goodbye for now.

My Rancho Gordo beans are soaking right now! I bought delicious crusty bread in order to increase my chances with my meat-loving family. Looking forward to dinner tonight!

Making these tonight but am concerned as I see my soaking beans’ skins have started to peel away from the beans. Is this a typical thing? Totally a newbie to making dried beans so just not sure and want to make sure I won’t end up with a pot of mush!

Hi Jenny,

I’ve been saving time by using canned beans for the last year or so of subscribing to your feed. This weekend I decided to cook my beans. I’ve got great northerns overnight soaked and I know these braised beans need 40 min and a few additions. What if I am making white beans for Andy’s Green Enchiladas? What do you recommend for a general use white bean for your recipes? Thanks in advance

Made this today with dried great northern beans. My meat loving husband loved it. I used burrata and pesto, forgot the squeeze of lemon. Will make again!

Hi, we can't stop eating these! My kids are begging for lima beans? What is this world?

This looks like exactly what I’ve been craving! Thanks for sharing

Delicious! I used Rancho Gordo limas and served it with braised Tuscan kale, sliced cherry tomatoes, and Samin Nosrat's salsa verde. The burrata takes this to a whole new level. Thanks so much!

I also have a question about the burrata. Do you make the burrata or purchase it? I have only had it at restaurants in the past and it is delicious. I saw online that it can be made but honestly of I can purchase it then I will be going that route.

Jenny, could I use corona beans? Couldn’t get lima. (I love this dish!)

Hi Jenny, I've heard that rinsing the beans/using new water for cooking helps get rid of some of the....less pleasant...side effects of beans. This looks delicious (and easy!) but we definitely suffer from beans around here sometimes. Is it just a myth that the soaking water causes more gas?

Do you buy or make the burrata? I've never had that before...

Hi,

Is there a search feature on this new platform? I'm wondering about the best way to search for recipes.

Thanks so much ..

Hi Jenny, I have a bunch of RG dried beans, but the while Cassoulet beans are the largest ones I have. Do you think this recipe would work the same with those?
