Ingredients
- 1 pound dried white beans (soaked for 8 hours or overnight, great northern beans work well)
- 2/3 cup olive oil
- 5 ribs celery (with leaves, chopped)
- 16 to 24 ounces red onions (chopped, 2 to 3 red onions)
- 1 carrot (peeled and sliced crosswise)
- Salt
- Pepper
How to Make
-
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.
