- 2. Wash and drain and put beans in a large pot and cover with water.
- 3. Let stand 8 hours or overnight.
- 4. The next day, chop celery, carrots and onions into 1/4-inch pieces. (This is easier with a food processor).

- 6. Bring to a simmer and cook over low heat for 3 hours or until beans are tender.
- 7. Remove ham hocks and set aside to cool.
- 8. Remove meat from bones and cut meat into half-inch pieces.
- 9. Put 2 cups of the soup into a blender along with the butter and flour; puree.
- 10. Pour this puree back in pan.
- 11. Puree more of the soup if you prefer a smoother texture and add the chopped ham pieces back into the soup.
- 12. Simmer for 15-20 minutes until soup is slightly thickened.
- 13. Good when sprinkled with a few drops of hot pepper sauce just before serving.

[email protected]This soup is okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. The beans were a bit undercooked for my taste, and the broth was a bit bland. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more spices.
