Notes
- Instead of plain water, you can use chicken stock or vegetable stock for additional flavor.
- Any kind of white beans can be used like navy beans, great northern beans or cannellini beans.
- This bean stew can be customized the way you like it. Make a thicker stew by simmering it for a longer period of time or if you prefer a thinner brothier stew, cook it for less time. Please note that it will thicken as it cools, so you want to simmer it until it is a bit thinner than you like it. Even just 5 minutes after you turn off the heat, it will thicken quite a bit.
