2 large cloves garlic

sliced

Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer until the beans are tender but not mushy, 40 to 45 minutes, skimming any foam that rises to the surface. Drain beans (discarding bay leaves) and set aside. [3] Place the olive oil in another heavy pot and cook the garlic over medium-low heat until lightly browned. Add the sage or thyme, drained beans, tomatoes and broth; cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with chopped parsley.
