Tip:
To prepare roasted garlic, cut the top 1/4 inch off each garlic head. Place each garlic head on a piece of foil. Drizzle each head with a little olive oil and sprinkle with thyme. Twist foil around each head to enclose completely. Bake at 350°F until soft, about 30 - 45 minutes. Squeeze softened garlic out of skins and purée. Roasted garlic purée may be frozen for up to 1 month.
White kidney beans are also known as cannellini beans.
