A refined take on ham and beans, utilizing the rich flavor of Iberico ham and creamy Cannellini beans. Fresh rosemary and a splash of dry sherry elevate the dish to a gourmet level.

Place the Beans in a large bowl, cover with water, and soak overnight. Drain and rinse the Beans.
In a large skillet, heat the Olive Oil over medium heat. Sauté the Shallot and Fennel until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the Garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Combine the sautéed vegetables, Ham, Pancetta, and Beans in a slow cooker.
Pour the Chicken Stock and Dry Sherry over the ingredients in the slow cooker.
Add the Rosemary sprigs, Red Pepper Flakes, Sea Salt, and Black Pepper to the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours, until the Beans are very tender.
Remove the Rosemary sprigs before serving. Garnish with reserved Fennel fronds. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
