Easiest Way to Cook Perfect White Bean And Ham Soup
White Bean And Ham Soup. Start this classic soup by simmering a ham bone or ham hocks with water to create a savory broth. Mash one can of beans and set aside.
The smoked ham hocks lend an amazing flavor to this soup. I was skeptical about the amount of meat I got off the ham hocks - it seemed like so little - but it ended up to be perfect. When the veggies are ready, stir in water, ham, thyme, salt and pepper, and the whole and mashed Great Northern beans.
Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and cover.
Add in orzo, onion and ham and sauté for a couple of minutes until onion is tender.
Add in garlic and cook for an additional minute. And I'm telling you, this is one of those effortless recipes that takes ten minutes to toss into the slow cooker in the morning for a ready-made meal eat at the. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and let sit for one hour.
