Polish Bean and Sausage Stew

Polish Bean and Sausage Stew
  • 1 cup dry cannellini beans
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 10 slices bacon, cubed
  • 1/2 (16 oz) ring kielbasa sausage, cubed
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 4 allspice berries
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can chopped tomatoes
  • dried marjoram, or to taste
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (optional)


  1. Place cannellini beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let soak 8 hours to overnight. Drain and add to a large pot. Cover with fresh water and cook on low heat until beans are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat while beans are cooking. Add bacon and sausage and cook until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer meats to a bowl, reserving some of the grease in the skillet.
  3. Cook onions in the reserved grease until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Add to bowl with meats.
  4. Stir meat mixture, bay leaves, and allspice into the cooked beans and bring to a simmer. Add tomatoes, marjoram, garlic, salt, and pepper and continue to simmer, 10 to 15 minutes. Add water if there is not enough liquid in the pot.
  5. Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat, add flour, and stir into a paste. Remove from heat and add to stew; stir in paprika powder. Simmer until stew has thickened, about 15 minutes.
