Step by Step Method

Step 1

Drain the soaked beans, rinse under running water and set aside.

Step 2

In a large soup pot heat half of the oil over medium heat. Add the vegetables ( celery - carrots), stir to combine and cook until vegetables are soft (10 minutes).

Step 3

Add beans to the pot and six cups of water. Increase heat to medium high and bring to a boil, skimming any foam that rises to the surface. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until beans are soft and soup is thick - 2 hours.

Step 4

Season with salt and pepper about 10 minutes before soup finishes cooking.

Step 5

Remove pot from heat and stir in remaining oil.

This soup is such a simple one yet very tasty. I made a half recipe and it was plenty for me for 3 meals. I am sure you can change up the type of beans you use. Definitely a make again soup for me! Thank you for sharing Ellie! Linda
