Answer 2

This is a 500 year old Italian recipe. It's called "Manasta and Beans".

Use one package of sliced pepperoni. Simmer covered in 1/3 cup of water for 15 minutes. Remove and save the pepperoni.

Drain the liquid in a cup and refrigerate overnight. The oil and orange stuff will solidify. Throw that away, but save the remaining liquid.

In a big pot with a cover, add a little olive oil, chopped garlic and chopped white onion and simmer for about 15 minutes. Add the liquid from the cup and a bunch of chopped mustard greens or escarole, and the pepperoni.

When the greens are cooked (soft) add a whole can of white beans and simmer until the beans are hot.

It is delicious. I'm new to this site...but I hope that you make it and find a way to respond.
