I love, love gigantes! They are great with greens, garlic a little lemon and Aleppo style pepper and nutritional yeast if not eating cheese. 101 Cookbooks giant chipotle white beans is great, and food52 did a genius version of her gigantes with greens. https://food52.com/blog/11251-heidi-swanson-s-pan-fried-giant-white-beans-with-kale

Just finished the episode this morning, so it’s after the fact, but I wanted to pipe in to share with Joy that I made a vegan gravy with our Thanksgiving meal this year, and it was full of flavor. The base was a fairly dark homemade vegetable stock, heavy on cremini mushrooms, with soy sauce plus salt to punch up the flavor. It was dead simple to make — let me know if you want details.
That sounds great! The one I made was a hit as well. Who knew?
