Marrow are similar in size and color to great northern and cannellini beans. These large white beans are said to taste like bacon. Soak overnight. Rinse and place in a large pot and cover with fresh water. Bring water to a boil for 3 minutes, reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 2 hours until tender. This bean produces foam, so skim the water regularly while cooking. One cup dry yields 2-1/4 cups cooked.
