INSTRUCTIONS:
- Prepare the Beans:
- Place the dried white beans in a large bowl and cover them with water. Allow the beans to soak overnight or for at least 8 hours. Drain and rinse the beans before using.
- Sauté the Aromatics:
- Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5-6 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for an additional minute, until fragrant.
- Add the Ham and Beans:
- Stir in the diced ham and soaked white beans, mixing well with the sautéed vegetables.
- Simmer the Soup:
- Pour the chicken or vegetable broth into the pot, ensuring that the ham and beans are fully submerged.
- Add the bay leaves and dried thyme to the soup, stirring to combine.
- Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, uncovered, for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the beans are tender and the flavors have melded together. Stir occasionally and skim off any foam that rises to the surface.
- Season to Taste:
- Once the soup has simmered to perfection, season it with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed, keeping in mind the saltiness of the ham.
- Serve and Garnish:
- Ladle the Delicious Ham and Bean Soup into bowls, ensuring that each serving contains a generous portion of ham, beans, and vegetables.
- Garnish the soup with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
- Enjoy:
- Serve the soup piping hot, accompanied by crusty bread or your favorite soup accompaniments.
