Recently, we had leftover ham and Alec suggested we do something creative with it. When I decided on white bean and ham soup, I had no idea what I was getting into. Soaking beans? Making stock with ham hocks? 'Twas a great recipe to further this amateur cook's kitchen skills. I only strayed from this recipe in two respects; our soup had grated carrot instead of chopped, and included more ham than the scant amount on the ham hocks.
The process took about 24 hours, but the soup was well worth the wait! After feasting on the delectable concoction, there were all of two servings left. It took all my willpower to leave some for Alec the next day!
Sutton ratings:
Alec: 4/5
Bekah: 5/5
Asher: n/a (He was on a supper strike, his loss!)
It seems appropriate to include a picture of my inspiration:
Sounds yummy! I have some ham in the freezer and was thinking of doing a baked potato soup but white beans and ham sound delish too! :)
ReplyDeleteYum, baked potato soup sounds great too!
