INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

* Note: Two fifteen-ounce cans of beans may be substituted for the dried
beans. Drain and rinse canned beans; proceed to step three.
Rinse and pick over beans. In a medium saucepan, cover beans with water,
and bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Transfer to a heat-resistant surface,
and let beans stand in water, uncovered, 1 hour.
Drain beans; add fresh water to cover beans by two inches. Return to medium
heat. Simmer, covered, until soft and tender, about 50 minutes. Allow beans
to cool slightly. Drain beans, reserving liquid.
Place beans, garlic, olive oil, sage, lemon juice, and salt and pepper in a
food processor; puree until smooth. If too thick, thin to desired
consistency with reserved bean liquid. Transfer to a covered container;
chill.
To serve, brush bread with olive oil, and toast. Garnish spread with sage
leaves or lemon slices, and serve the toasts on the side.
Serves 12 to 14.
