BEST HAM AND BEAN SOUP EVER

Categories     Soup/Stew     Bean     Stew     Dinner     Lunch     Ham     Winter

Yield 12-15 Bowls

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (20 ounce) package 15 bean mixture, soaked overnight
1 ham bone
2 1/2 cups cubed ham
1 large onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
5 large carrots, chopped
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with liquid
1 (12 fluid ounce) can low-sodium vegetable juice
3 cups vegetable broth
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chili powder
3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dried parsley
3 tablespoons lemon juice
7 cups low fat, low sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • 1. Soak beans the night before. I also like to cut and chop all my other ingredients the night before, so I can just throw it all in the pot the next morning to simmer for 8 hours. 2. Place the soaked beans into a large pot and fill with enough water to cover by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then simmer over low for 30 minutes. 3. Drain. Add the ham bone (place inside cloth tea bag or cheesecloth, as it may fall apart during simmering), ham, onion, celery, carrots, tomatoes, vegetable juice, and vegetable broth. Season with Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, chili powder, bay leaves, pepper, parsley and lemon juice. Pour in enough of the chicken broth to cover the ingredients. 4. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 8 hours. Add more chicken broth as needed throughout the day. Remove the ham bone and season with salt if needed. Continue to simmer for a couple more hours. Remove bay leaves before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality ham bone or ham hock. This will give your soup a richer flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to add some vegetables to your soup. Carrots, celery, and onions are all great additions.
  • If you want a thicker soup, you can add a cornstarch slurry. Just mix together equal parts cornstarch and water, then stir it into your soup until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Serve your soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Ham and bean soup is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. With its simple ingredients and delicious flavor, it's no wonder that this soup has been a favorite for generations. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give ham and bean soup a try.
