Beans


• Do not try to cook a mixture of dried beans at once.  Every bean has a different cooking time, and a mixture will not cook consistently.  Cook the different types individually and mix them later if desired.

• When serving Unico's marinated bean salad, reserve the liquid.  It makes a great salad dressing for greens or pasta salad later.

• Try pureeing drained beans with a splash of balsamic vinegar and seasonings for an easy spread or dip.
