Tips to enjoy it as it deserves at home
Enjoying Casa Gerardo fabada at home is quite an experience, but it requires certain care to ensure that each bite is perfect. Here are some essential tips:
1. Delicate Handling of Beans
Fresh beans are very delicate and we must be especially careful not to break them when removing them from the jar. Each bean is cooked to perfection to absorb the juices and seasonings of the stew. When handling them, remember to do so gently to preserve their characteristic shape and texture.
2. Heating in a bain-marie
To revive the essence of fabada without compromising the delicacy of the beans, the reheating process is essential. Follow these steps:
- Bain-marie: Place the sealed jar of fabada in a container with hot water and leave it in a bain-marie for 20 minutes. This method ensures an even distribution of heat, keeping the flavours and creamy texture of the stew intact.
3. Transfer and Service
Once the bain-marie time has elapsed:
Opening and Transfer: Open the jar carefully to avoid breaking the beans and pour it into a saucepan.
Final Cooking: Heat the contents in the saucepan for about a minute. Keep an eye on it: as soon as it starts to boil, remove it from the heat. This brief boil ensures that the fabada reaches the ideal temperature to enjoy without altering its structure.
