Sweet-Sour Green Bean Soup image

This is a tangy soup that my mother used to make. I couldn't find another recipe like it, so thought I would write it down for my own sake and share it for others.

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 potatoes, cut into cubes, or more to taste
2 cups 1-inch cut green beans
water to cover
salt and ground black pepper to taste
5 slices bacon, chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ cup apple cider vinegar, or to taste
2 tablespoons white sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place potatoes and green beans into a large pot. Pour enough water over potatoes and green beans just to cover and season with salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Place bacon in a large skillet; cook and stir over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Stir flour into bacon until flour forms a paste, 2 to 3 minutes. Mix bacon mixture into potato mixture; bring to a boil and cook until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Mix vinegar and sugar into soup.

I'm not a big fan of green beans, but this soup was delicious! The sweetness of the pineapple and the sourness of the vinegar balanced each other out perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
