We wanted to create a dish that would highlight these beans using a gently spiced flavor profile. Since cranberry beans are rarely canned, we knew we\u2019d have to start with dried beans. We saut\u00e9ed aromatic vegetables along with tomato paste for depth of flavor; just a touch of cinnamon imparted a subtle yet distinct warmth. White wine offered acidity, and broth gave the dish a hearty backbone. Letting the beans cook through in the Dutch oven in a moderate oven ensured that they were perfectly cooked without the need for constant monitoring. We completed our comforting side dish with lemon juice and fresh mint, which nicely balanced the warm, rich flavors of the beans. If cranberry beans are unavailable, you can substitute pinto beans. You\u2019ll get fewer blowouts if you soak the beans overnight, but if you\u2019re pressed for time, you can quick-salt-soak your beans: In step 1, bring the salt, water, and beans to a boil in the Dutch oven. Remove the pot from the heat, cover, and let sit for 1 hour. Drain and rinse the beans and proceed with step 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cranberry beans have a delicate flavor and a creamy texture similar to that of pinto and cannellini beans.
