Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup dried fava beans
1/2 cup dried Great Northern beans
6 cups water
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled, finely chopped
1 small celery stalk, finely chopped
8 ounces savoy cabbage, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 4 cups)
1/2 head Bibb lettuce, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Place fava beans in medium saucepan. Place Great Northern beans in large bowl. Add enough cold water to each to cover by 3 inches and let soak overnight.
  • Bring fava beans to boil in their soaking liquid. Boil 5 minutes. Drain fava beans and cool slightly. Using small sharp knife, make small slit in skin of each bean. Peel off outer skins and discard. Drain Great Northern beans.
  • Bring 6 cups water to boil in large pot. Add all beans, onion, carrot and celery. Partially cover; simmer over medium heat until beans are half cooked, about 30 minutes. Add cabbage and lettuce. Partially cover; cook until beans are tender, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Drizzle with oil.

I like to add a little bit of spice to this soup. I usually add a teaspoon of chili powder or cumin.

I'm not a fan of carrots, so I left them out of the soup. It was still very good.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the chicken and beef broth. The soup was still very flavorful.

I'm not a huge fan of barley, so I substituted rice instead. The soup was still delicious and my family loved it.

This country-style soup was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and hearty, and the vegetables were cooked perfectly. I especially loved the addition of the barley, which gave the soup a nice chewy texture.
