Ham & Spud Sixteen Edible Bean Soup



Ingredients:
1 lb mixed dried beans*
six cups chicken or ham stock
two cups cubed ham
two medium carrots, diced
1 onion, diced
three cloves garlic, minced
three potatoes, peeled as well as cubed
1 cubanelle pepper, diced
1 tablespoon soil mustard
1 teaspoon hot paprika
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon parsley
1 teaspoon chervil
1 bay leaf
bounding main salt
freshly soil dark pepper


Directions:
The nighttime earlier you lot desire to consume the soup, identify the beans inwards a 6-quart dull cooker. Fill the dull cooker insert alongside water, roofing the beans past times at to the lowest degree two inches. I usually produce amount the insert nearly to the top. Cover as well as permit the beans to soak overnight (with the dull cooker turned off).

The side past times side morning, drain the beans as well as provide them to the pot, discarding the water.

Add the vegetables, ham, spices as well as stock. Cook on depression for 8-10 hours. Stir as well as serve.


Variation: If I'm home, I similar to brownish the ham as well as add together one-half at the offset as well as one-half nearly halfway through the cooking time. I intend that yields a slightly hammier finished production but both are good.



*Look for these alongside the balance of the beans. This fourth dimension I used a xvi edible bean mix (instead of my commons 15 bean, xvi edible bean contains barley!). Here they are pre-soak to hand you lot an catch what the mix includes:



My thoughts:
This is a non bad means to purpose upward leftover ham. I had ane of those spiral sliced hams as well as it never seems similar the spiral extends downward far plenty as well as at that spot is ever a lot of perfectly good, thin ham downward close the bottom. I've taken to hacking it off as well as tucking it away for when I necessitate cubed ham as well as serving the slices for dinner as well as sandwiches. So much improve than simply tossing it similar I've seen hostesses do. It was a hickory smoked ham as well as therefore added non bad flavour to this rich, comforting soup.
