Инструкции
- SOAK BEANS OVERNIGHT. DRAIN
- simmer beans in 8 c. of water till soft on medium flame. meanwhile while the beans are cooking, saute/fry the minced onion and celery in butter till golden brown. add in them to the soup pot along with 2 bay leaves, parsley, salt, pepper and ham bone. cook over medium heat for 3 hrs, adding water if needed. after the beans are cooked and soft, remove the ham. cut off the meat and set aside. Cold off soup and put in in a blender and puree in batches. return the soup to the pot, and add in 2/3 dry sherry and the ham meat. cook over low heat till warmed through and adjust seasonings.
- NOTE: i leave off the celery because i do not like it. i also add in a bit less than 2/3 c. sherry. adjust it to your taste. some people add in the a little sherry at the table instead of putting it in the soup pot. i prefer letting it cook in, so the alchohol content is cooked off. it can also be topped with lowfat sour cream.
