The Quiet Joy of Slow Simmering
On beans, bone broth, and the small pleasures of a pot that asks nothing of you.
There is a particular kind of Sunday that starts with a heavy pot on the back burner.
Time as an ingredient
A slow simmer transforms tough cuts and dried beans into velvety, deeply-flavored meals. All it requires is patience.
Getting started
Start with a pound of dried beans, an onion, a bay leaf, and salt. Cover with water. Simmer for 90 minutes. That's it.
