Fabada Asturiana
Spanish · Mediterranean
STOVETOP
8/10
Rich Asturian white bean stew with chorizo, morcilla (blood sausage), and smoked pork, slow-cooked until creamy.
Why It Works
The large faba beans absorb the rendered fat from the cured meats. Never stirring (only shaking the pot) keeps the beans intact while they become creamy inside.
Key Ingredients
faba beans
chorizo
morcilla
