It's been said by many women that my ass is a work of art. Therefore, all that comes from it must be revered.

As it turns out, I cook a 2-lb bag in a pressure cooker with a whole stick of butter. Got-DAMN, they're good.

Let us post some butterbean recipes.

Butterbean Hummus
2 cups shelled butter beans in pods
2 fat cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup sliced green onions, including pale green parts (about one bunch)
Juice of one lemon
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped
4 tablespoons fresh Greek oregano leaves, chopped
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup thick Greek-style plain yogurt
Sea salt and pepper to taste (at least 1/4 teaspoon each, as legumes absorb them)

Put beans in a small saucepan with water to cover. Cook until tender, about 30 minutes at a steady roll, adding more water if necessary. Let cool in the liquid until ready to use or refrigerate until needed, up to three days.

In a sauté pan, briefly soften garlic and onions over low heat in one tablespoon olive oil (two to three minutes). Do not brown. Drain limas and put into a food processor or blender with softened garlic and onions, lemon juice, zest, mint and oregano. Purée mixture, adding remaining olive oil slowly to incorporate. Fold in yogurt by hand. Season to taste. Turn into dip bowl, garnish with fresh mint leaves, and serve with sea-salt pita chips and fresh veggies. Serves 6 to 8 as starter. Keeps three days in fridge.

My response was a joke after someone said the same thing to you in a previous thread.

Now I love some butter beans! I can cook some yummmy ones served over rice. Damn that sounds so good!

This reminds me that I need to use my pressure cooker. I inherited it from my grandmother, who also used it for butterbeans.

11/8/2010 12:26:28 PM

I love my pressure cooker! It was one of the first things I went out and bought after I got divorced. I used to use it all the time, but I just don't have a whole lot of time to cook anymore. The beauty of a pressure cooker is that it does lop lots of time off of cooking, and the food is better too.

This has inspired me to go cook some beans in my pressure cooker.

11/8/2010 1:10:01 PM

i have never been a fan of butterbeans plain. they are good in stuff, esp brunswick stew, but i have never liked just butterbeans. i don't know why.

11/8/2010 1:24:56 PM

You haven't had them cooked right. Trust me on this.

11/8/2010 1:31:07 PM

what is "right"??

11/8/2010 1:36:33 PM

Cooked to taste delicious

11/8/2010 1:37:52 PM

lol i know but how? i've had them my entire life cooked a variety of ways and haven't liked them unless they are with something else (corn, brunswick stew, etc). they just don't do it for me plain, i'm pretty sure it is the texture not the taste haha.

11/8/2010 1:45:19 PM

The babiest of baby limas, pressure cooked (not too long) with some butter thrown in the pot. Damn tasty, not mealy.

11/8/2010 1:48:18 PM

I'm the same way. I like butterbeans in things but not so much by themselves.

11/8/2010 1:49:59 PM

They're definitely good in stews and stuff...

One thing that I have figured out is that, here in the south, there are a lot of vegetables that really go underappreciated because of how they're cooked. The de factor standard here is to cook the everloving shit out of them. Butterbeans definitely suffer this fate way too often.

11/8/2010 2:11:14 PM

^ that is the truth. i thought i didn't like squash for like the first 15 years of my life because of how my family cooked it (down to mush basically, w/ brown sugar and butter). tons of people like it that way, even my non southern BF, but i hated it, and that is the only way i knew squash. once i realized that wasn't how squash was always cooked it changed my life forever haha. because i <3 squash.

11/8/2010 2:16:14 PM

I didn't like collards until I discovered the Brazilian way of cooking them

11/8/2010 2:22:34 PM
