Than add beans and bay leaf and water to cover the beans. Cook for 1 hour on very gently fire. (in Croatia we have special sausages "cesnjovke" which we put in this beans and cook all together, but you can put any kind of smoked, dried meat - pork or beef). Very important to know is that you do not add chili or any kind of hot paprika afterwards. Hot paprika must be cooked from he very beginning or you will suffer from very bad digestive process. We in Croatia always drink alcohol if we eat something hot, otherwise, you'll have very bad digestive process. This meal is very good during cold winter, it renews your strength.
