From the movie: they call me trinity

Beans were dried so:
– soak beans overnight
– cook beans aside with only water, no salt (in a pressure cooker they need 40 mins)
– meanwhile prepare in a separate pan a mix of sausages (I used two different types), pancetta tesa and guanciale (Just a couple of slices to add flavour), a drizzle of olive oil, chilli and onions (I used red onions)
– when onions are cooked pour a glass of red wine
– when the alcool has evaporated and it's less liquid (but not dry) add tomatoes (I used canned tomatoes,
Pelati)
– cook for 20 mins, after that add the beans (which became ready in the meanwhile) and wait for another 20-30 minutes (add beans cooking water, not the soaked water, when needed)

It's not a soup, it needs to be creamy, not dry. I didn't add any salt, the salt in the sausages was enough.

Don't ask for proportion, I have no idea of the meat, what I remember is 200gr of dried beans, 2 small onions and 250gr of canned tomatoes for 2 people (I mean 3 as well but I could finish this on my own)
Obviously you will need bread!
Enjoy

    FYI, soaking beans is pointless. You only save like 10 minutes from the cook time.
