  5. Reduce the heat on the beans to a low simmer and cook for about 1 hour until the beans are cooked through. Add water as necessary.
  6. Once the beans are cooked through, remove from the heat and season with salt, reserved olive oil and juice of the lemons. Crack the basil sprigs with the back of a chef knife and add to the beans. Allow beans to cool to room temperature and chill.
