15 Bean, Beer and Ham Soup image

Well, cool weather has come to visit us again in Ohio and we are expecting snow tonight, so it's a good time to get the ham bone out of the freezer and make some bean soup.

Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 leftover ham bone
water
1 bag of dry 15 beans
1 medium onion, diced
1 box fresh sliced mushrooms
6 garlic cloves, pressed
1 bottle beer (i use dos equis xx amber)
salt and pepper
butter
olive oil
1 bay leaves (optional)
1 - 2 tsp thyme, dried
chives for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. 15 bean soup includes:Great Northern Bean, Pinto Bean, Green Split Pea, Small Red Bean, Baby Lima Bean, Light Red Kidney Bean, Small White, Black Eye Pea, Pink Bean, Lentil, Yellow Split Pea, Large Lima, Black Bean, Dark Red Kidney and Garbanzo Bean Rinse well and then soak for 3 - 4 hours. Drain and rinse again.
  • 2. We always keep the leftover ham bone from any holiday and leave some ham on it too. I take it out of the freezer and put it in a nice large pot with a liter or two of water and cook it on medium for a couple of hours. Then take off the remaining ham and chop it up. Now I have the broth for my bean soup.
  • 3. Saute your onions in butter or oil and add to broth along with the beans and seasonings. Add your beer to the broth as well. Cook on low/medium heat for 3 to 4 hours. It would be great for the crockpot too. About 1/2 hour before serving saute your mushrooms in butter and add to your soup. Ready to serve.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also a very affordable and easy-to-make meal. I love that you can just throw all of the ingredients in a pot and let it simmer. I served this soup with some crusty bread and it was perfect.
