Time 10h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup dried navy beans
1 large sweet onion (such as Vidalia®), diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
6 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 teaspoon hot (Madras) curry powder
1 teaspoon lemon balm
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper

3 cups fresh corn kernels

Steps:

  • Place dried navy beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let soak, 8 hours to overnight. Drain.
