Corona beans and sautéed cabbage with thinly sliced onion, garlic, fennel seeds, thyme, and a touch of red pepper — braised in stock and baked covered at 375°F until the beans absorb everything around them. Finished with a lemon-zested parmesan breadcrumb topping that goes back in uncovered until golden and crunchy. In Chinese medicine, white beans strengthen Spleen and Stomach qi — warming, grounding, and substantial enough to anchor the bitter, moving qualities of the cabbage without depleting the middle. Simple ingredients doing serious work. 🥬🫘 #CompassKitchen #WhiteBeanBake #CabbageBake #CoronaBeansCoronaBean #FennelSeeds #ChineseMedicine #SpleenQi #FoodAsMedicine #WinterDinner #CompassTable
