INSTRUCTIONS
Drain and rinse white beans. Place in medium saucepan with enough water to cover by an inch. Add onion halves (with cloves) and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook covered very gently 1/2 hour. Skim any foam that has accumulated on the surface. Add water to just cover beans if necessary. Add 2 teaspoons salt and continue to cook 1530 minutes until beans are creamy inside but still intact. Remove bay leaf and onion halves, and set beans aside in their cooking liquid until needed. In the meantime, heat olive oil in large kettle or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions, season with remaining salt and pepper, and cook 58 minutes until softened. Add garlic, stir, cook 2 minutes or until fragrant. Add leeks, celery, carrots, turnips and sweat 5 minutes. Add wine, bay leaf, bouquet garni and simmer until wine is reduced by half. Add stock or water and bring to the simmer. Add pasta and cook until pasta is almost al dente. Add fennel, zucchini and squash, the cooked white beans and their cooking liquid, and cook five minutes; add tomatoes and cook two more minutes. Finally, add peas and spinach and cook 1 minute, until peas are tender. Add parsley, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove bay leaf and bouquet garni. Serve with a dollop of pistou swirled in.
