Steps:
- Boil the beans in a large pot with water to cover by 2 inches for 10 minutes.
- Lower the heat and add the 5 garlic cloves, sage leaves, bay leaves, and 2 teaspoons of olive oil.
- Simmer, covered until the beans are tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Remove bay leaves and drain, reserving the broth.
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Rub the head of garlic with a little of the remaining olive oil and put it in a small baking dish and add 1/3 cup water.
- Cover and bake until soft and lightly caramelized, about 45 minutes.
- Cool, then squeeze out the softened garlic.
- Puree the beans in a food processor with all the garlic, the remaining olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and enough bean broth to give the beans a soft, spreadable consistency.
- Season to taste with lemon juice and pepper and taste again for salt.
- Stir in thyme leaves and serve warm.

Steps:
- Place olive oil, garlic and rosemary in a 10-inch skillet. Heat pan until ingredients start to sizzle. Add beans and their liquid to the pan. As beans cook, mash them with a wooden spoon or potato masher. Cook until mixture is a loose spread consistency (it will thicken as it cools). Transfer to a serving bowl or storage container.
