Hearty Spanish Bean Stew with Chorizo

Serves 6 to 8
Time 40 min

This hearty bean stew has its roots near the region of Ribera del Duero (the Duero river) which runs through the heart of Castilla. Serve it with a full-bodied red wine, like our Penescal. A hint for the cook: to brown the smoked sausage, simply cook it in a large skillet over medium heat with a bit of olive oil until golden brown all over.
