You can make it with large white beans or large lima beans. Here is my favorite way of serving it: I put it in the center of a large plate, grate some Parmesan cheese over it, and then top it all with some garlicky greens such as broccoli rabe, spinach, or Stir-Fried Beet Greens with Ginger and Green Chiles (page 215). All you need then is some crusty bread on the side.
