CREAM OF GREEN BEAN SOUP



Cream of Green Bean Soup image

I was so surprised when I found this recipe. It's made with fresh green beans, and uses potatoes to thicken it instead of flour or cornstarch. I especially like the tarragon in this soup. If it gets too thick, use the larger amount of whipping cream. To save calories, I like to use fat-free half and half. This was in a box of my mother's clipped recipes. I don't know where she clipped it from....looked like magazine paper to me.

Time 1h12m

Yield 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 green onions, sliced
6 shallots, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 medium baking potatoes, peeled and diced
4 cups chicken broth
2 lbs fresh green beans, cut into 2 inch pieces
1/2-1 cup whipped cream or 1/2-1 cup half & half light cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Saute the green onions, shallot and garlic in the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until tender. Set aside.
  • Cook the diced potatoes in boiling water to cover for 15 minutes, or until tender (depends on how small you diced them); drain well, and set aside.
  • Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a large saucepan; add green beans, and cook 30 to 35 minutes or until tender. Add the reserved green onions and potato; stir well.
  • Transfer half of the green bean mixture to the container of an electric blender; cover and process until smooth, stopping once to scrape down the sides. Repeat the procedure with the remaining green bean mixture. (Sometimes I like to use my immersion blender, leaving some of the pieces whole). Return the pureed mixture to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat; stir in whipping cream or half and half, lemon juice, and tarragon. Cook until thoroughly heated. Serve, and sprinkle with black pepper.
