Steps:
- Place the dry beans in a pot, cover with 3" of cold water, and let them soak overnight.
- The next morning drain the beans in a colander and rinse very well with cold water. Return the beans to the pot, add just enough water to cover them, and bring the water to a boil. After a couple of minutes, remove the pot from the heat, drain the water again and rinse the beans again. (This step is important, not only you are getting rid of the impurities and the residue of the beans, but your beans will be easier to digest and more gentle on your stomach!)
- Return the rinsed beans to the pot along with 6 cups of cold water and the olive oil. Bring to a boil, reduce to a medium simmer, and partially cover with a lid. Cook for 15 minutes.
- While the beans cook start prepping the vegetables. Once prepared add the leeks, shallot, kale, carrots, celery and garlic to the pot. Next add the bay leaves, oregano, rosemary, and ground pepper. Finally, if you have it, add the Parmesan rind (it adds lots of flavor to soups and stews as it slowly melds with the broth). Cook the soup for another 30 minutes, or, until beans are almost cooked.
- Stir the potatoes and the tomato into the soup. Simmer for another 15 minutes or so, until the potatoes are tender. Lastly, stir in the soup the salt. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
- Let the soup cool down slightly, then serve with a generous drizzle of olive oil and a good sprinkle of fresh Parmesan cheese.

FALL VEGETABLE SOUP WITH WHITE BEANS
This is a recipe payoff from having made the Stewed Cauliflower, Butternut Squash, and Tomatoes (page 55), beefed up with the addition of white beans, crunchy croutons, fresh thyme, and cheese. The soup is a beautiful orange color and tastes of cream, even though it has no such thing in it.
Number Of Ingredients 9
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Put the bread cubes on a small baking sheet, drizzle with the oil, and toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer and toast in the oven for 5 to 6 minutes, until very crisp and golden brown, watching closely to avoid burning them. Use tongs to turn over the bread cubes and toast for another 5 to 6 minutes to create evenly browned croutons. Remove from the oven.
- Combine the stewed vegetables and stock in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until hot, about 5 minutes.
- Add the white beans and cook for a few minutes until heated through. Add more water if you want a thinner texture. Stir in the thyme. Taste and add salt and pepper, if desired.
- Pour the hot soup into a bowl, add the croutons, sprinkle with the cheese, and eat.
Tips:
- Prep vegetables properly: Dice or chop vegetables uniformly for even cooking and a pleasing texture.
- Use flavorful veggie broth: Homemade or store-bought vegetable broth adds depth of flavor to the soup. If using store-bought, choose a low-sodium option or dilute it with water.
- Sauté aromatics: Sautéing onions, garlic, and herbs in olive oil before adding other ingredients enhances their flavor and aroma.
- Add beans and vegetables in stages: Different vegetables have different cooking times. Add root vegetables like carrots and potatoes first, then softer vegetables like zucchini and spinach later.
- Season well: Taste the soup throughout the cooking process and adjust seasonings as needed. Freshly ground black pepper, salt, dried thyme, and oregano are classic seasonings for vegetable soup.
- Garnish before serving: A sprinkle of fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, or a dollop of yogurt adds a finishing touch to the soup and enhances its flavor.
Conclusion:
This fall vegetable soup with white beans is a hearty, flavorful, and nutritious meal that's perfect for a chilly autumn day. With its colorful mix of vegetables, tender beans, and savory broth, this soup is sure to warm you up from the inside out.
