LIMA BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• For the salad: Combine the lima beans, broth and bacon in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the lima beans are tender and cooked through, adding the corn during the last 2 minutes of cooking, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove and discard the bacon and drain the beans and corn. Set aside to come to room temperature.
• Make the vinaigrette: Sprinkle the garlic with about 1/4 teaspoon salt. Use the flat side of a chef's knife to press down on the garlic and drag it across the cutting board. Keep mincing, pressing and dragging the garlic until it forms a paste. Place the garlic paste in a large bowl. Add the vinegar, honey and celery seeds. Gradually whisk in the oil until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the lima beans and corn, tomatoes, peppers and onions and toss until combined. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve at room temperature.

LIMA-BEAN SALAD WITH ROASTED POBLANOS AND QUESO FRESCO

Steps:

• Rinse beans, removing debris; transfer to a large bowl. Add cold water until covered by at least 2 inches. Refrigerate overnight.
• Drain; transfer beans to a large pot and add enough water to cover by 4 inches. Add yellow onion, carrot, and celery; bring to a simmer. Season generously with salt; reduce heat to medium-low and continue simmering until beans are tender but not falling apart, 40 to 50 minutes. Drain; transfer to a large bowl. Remove and discard vegetables. (Or, if not using immediately, let cool in liquid and refrigerate up to 5 days.)
• Place chiles over the flame of a gas burner or on a grill; roast, turning, until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover with a plate; let cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, use a paring knife to remove charred skins. Remove stems and seeds; cut chiles into 1/2-inch pieces.
• In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar and oil. Drizzle over beans; add roasted chiles, red onion, cilantro, and tomatoes. Gently toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with cheese, and serve.

• Meanwhile, cook the green beans in boiling water for 2 mins. Drain, cool under cold running water, then drain again. Mix together the green beans, cannellini or butter beans, remaining oil, onion and feta, then season to taste. Toss with the hot carrots, then tear in the mint just before serving.

LIMA BEAN SPREAD WITH FETA AND ZA'ATAR

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bring about 3 quarts water to a boil and add soaked, skinned beans. Reduce to a simmer and cook until beans are very soft, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, drizzle garlic with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast until very tender, about 30 minutes.
• When beans are soft, reserve about 1/2 cup of the cooking water, then drain well. Using a food processor, blend beans just until coarsely mashed. Allow roasted garlic to cool until it can be handled, then squeeze garlic out of its skin into bean purée. Add 3 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest and cumin. Process just until blended, adding a bit of reserved cooking water if needed to make a rough, chunky purée.
• Transfer to a bowl. Add mint and feta, and stir to mix. Season with salt, as needed. Place in a serving dish, drizzle with remaining olive oil, and sprinkle with the za'atar. Serve with pita bread.
