Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb dried white beans, rinsed and picked over
1 tsp minced fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 tsp dried thyme or 1 tbsp minced fresh sage or 1/2 tsp dried sage, to taste
salt , to taste
black pepper , to taste
2 tsp garlic, minced
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil , to taste

Directions:

If time allows, soak dried beans for several hours or overnight, then drain. (If not, proceed, but expect cooking time to be somewhat longer.) Place the drained beans in a large pot with water to cover. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Add the herb and partially cover; adjust the heat so the mixture simmers steadily.
Cook, stirring occasionally, about an hour. Add about 1/2 tsp salt and some pepper. Continue to cook, adding water if necessary, until the beans are quite soft, another 15 to 30 minutes or so.
If the mixture is very soupy, raise the heat a bit and cook off the remaining liquid. When the beans are moist but not soupy, add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes or so. Add the olive oil, taste and adjust the seasoning, and serve or refrigerate for up to 3 days before reheating. (Or add water to cover and freeze for up to a month.).
