Soak the beans in plenty of salted water overnight, or for at least 8 hours
Drain and rinse the beans. Place in a pot, cover with fresh salted water, and bring to a boil. Simmer for 1 hour 15 minutes or until tender, then drain

Preheat the oven to 170°C
Next, cook the rhubarb base. Sauté the onion and garlic in the olive oil for about 10 minutes
Add the rhubarb, tomatoes, maple syrup, chilli flakes, paprika and vinegar. Cook for 10 minutes until the rhubarb has softened and is tender
Mix the cooked beans and parsley into the rhubarb sauce, and simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste
Spoon over buttered sourdough and top with the pickled rhubarb ribbons
