White Beans with Garlic, Lemon, and Parmesan

A fabulous Italian bean salad that is at its best made a few hours ahead and held at room temperature. The recipe calls for dried beans but it is just fine (which means absolutely delicious) with canned cannellini beans. Great for a picnic or backyard BBQ. Even if you think you don't like anchovies, don't omit them from this dish -- they add flavor not fishiness.

The recipe is actually in the insert (10E) opposite p. 10.
