Steps:
- 1. Rinse and drain navy beans, watching and throwing out any small pebbles. Put in pressure cooker in 3 inches of water, without the lid. Bring to a boil and boil 5 minutes. Remove from burner. Put all in a separate pot for about 2 hours. Then drain beans and add fresh water.
- 2. While you are waiting for the beans to soften, pressure cook cottage ham butt according to size and directions on the label. Cool. Shred ham, removing the fat. Set aside.
- 3. Return beans to the pressure cooker with the fresh water, chopped onions, celery and shredded ham. Pressure cook about 20 minutes on full heat.

If your beans are still too hard, pressure cook a little longer. You'll get used to your cooker and how long it takes depending on your stove top type. Best served with homemade baked cornbread (not sweet!) or fried cornbread patties.
- 4. This soup freezes beautifully. Just put desired serving size in freezer quart or gallon bags and freeze. Great to have on hand for a quick lunch or light supper on a cold winter day!
HAM BEAN SOUP (PRESSURE COOKER)
This is a quicker version of my Recipe #145910. The only real difference between this and the long simmering version is that you don't have to remember to soak the beans overnight, and the beans retain more texture. My dad loves the original recipe, and he declared this to be just as good.

Steps:
- Cut up onion, garlic and ham.
- Rinse beans and remove any that are discolored.
- Place all ingredients in pressure cooker with seasonings to taste.
- Turn on high pressure for 25 minutes. (If you have an electronic pressure cooker the meat setting is great for this recipe).

Tips:
- Use a variety of beans. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Try using a combination of white beans, black beans, and kidney beans.
- Don't overcook the beans. They should be tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked beans will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Add vegetables to your soup. This will make it more nutritious and flavorful. Try using carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes.
- Use a flavorful ham hock. This will give your soup a rich, smoky flavor. If you don't have a ham hock, you can use a ham bone or smoked sausage.
- Season your soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice for a little extra brightness.
- Serve your soup with crusty bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.
Conclusion:
Ham and bean soup is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying soup that the whole family will enjoy.
