Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Drain the beans & rinse well, then place them in a large saucepan.
  2. Add the 1 generous pinch of saffron threads (crushed) & 1 1/2 quarts water, then bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Add butter, then reduce heat to low & simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
  4. Stir in the onions, parsley & pepper & cook for another 30 minutes or until beans are tender. Stir occasionally to make sure beans are not sticking.
  5. Just before beans are ready, add salt to taste.
  6. If sauce is too thick, add a little water, but if it's too thin, increase the heat to high & boil until thickened, stirring regularly so that the beans don't stick.
  7. Taste & adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
  8. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
