By Winslow. Make sure your beans are fresh and haven't been sitting in the cupboard for months. As they get older, they tend to not cook very well and it is difficult to make them get tender or done. Serve with cornbread and hot sauce if you like. Sometimes I add a little minced onion on the top for garnish.

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) bag dried navy beans
7 cups water
1 ham bone (for flavor)
2 cups diced ham
1/4 cup minced onion
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup sliced carrot
1/2 cup sliced celery

Steps:

  • Sort beans and place in a large pot, cover with cold water, and soak overnight. Or bring to a boil for 3 minutes, then cover, remove from heat and beans sit undisturbed for one hour.
  • Drain bean water.
  • Add remaining ingredients except celery and carrots to beans (including 7 cups water).
  • Bring beans to a boil, then lower heat, cover, and simmer for about 90 minutes, stirring and skimming occasionally.
  • Adjust cooking time if needed until beans are soft and tender.
  • Add carrots and celery and cook for about half an hour.
  • Fish out the ham hock, and when cool enough to handle, remove its meat and add the meat back to the pot.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out great! It's so easy to just throw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let it cook all day.

The soup was a bit too thick for my liking. I would have preferred it to be a little thinner.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it palatable.

I love this soup! It's so hearty and flavorful. I always add a little extra garlic and onion, and I like to serve it with a side of crusty bread.
