Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Rinse the Asturian beans and soak them in water for at least 8 hours or overnight. Drain and set aside.
2
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the panceta and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the panceta from the pot and set aside.
3
Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the smoked paprika and cook for an additional minute.
4
Add the chorizo and morcilla to the pot and cook until the meats are browned, about 5 minutes.
5
Add the soaked and drained Asturian beans to the pot, along with the crispy panceta, salt, and black pepper. Pour in enough water to cover the beans and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour, or until the beans are tender.
