White beans with ham

My house smells so heavenly right now. The soup is in the final meld stage of cooking. This is an easy workday soup. Put the beans on when you wake up, turn them down when you leave for work, and add the veggies when you get home.

Add the bay leaf.
- 4
Preheat a cast iron pan and toast the cumin until it starts to brown.
- 5
Add the mustard seeds and half the smoked salt.
- 6
Immediately lay the sliced onions atop the spices so the mustard seeds don't all jump out of the pan.
- 7
Add olive oil and butter.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions just start to turn translucent.
- 9
Add peppers, garlic, and black pepper then cook until the onions are translucent.

Add the carrots to the beans and cook for two hours.

This was the best bean soup that any of us had ever eaten.

Black Bean (w/ Ham) Soup Black Bean (w/ Ham) Soup
This is a go to soup (meal) when I have leftover ham from a holiday meal. The smoked ham hock adds a great flavor. For a traditional Cuban meal, omit the meat and dairy, and serve with white rice. To “Mexican-ize” the dish, add some “heat” (jalapeno or hot sauce) within the cooking process and garnish with cilantro, salsa, etc. Rick M -

Baby Lima Beans with Ham and Greens Baby Lima Beans with Ham and Greens
Lima beans (butter beans) are a delicious and healthy way to get protein and fiber in one dish. Adding greens makes it even better! Instead of soaking the beans overnight I prefer the 1-hour "quick soak" method. The prep work can be done easily at the same time. Granny in the Kitchen -
