Time 9h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup dry navy beans
1 large bunch kale, rinsed, stemmed and chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound spicy linguica sausage, sliced
1 cup chopped shallots
4 cups chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste
½ teaspoon hot sauce, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place the navy beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours or overnight. Drain and rinse before using.
  • Cook the soaked beans in a pressure cooker in 4 cups of water for 25 minutes. Use the natural release method to release pressure. Do not drain.
  • Bring a separate pot of salted water to a boil. Add the kale and simmer until kale is bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Drain in a strainer, and cool under cold running water. Set aside.
  • Heat olive oil over medium heat in the soup pot. Brown the linguica slices on each side, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add shallots to pot and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Pour in a splash of chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits of sausage.
  • Return the sausage to the pot along with the beans and their cooking liquid. Stir in the chicken broth. Bring soup to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes. Add the kale and cook about 4 minutes longer. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce to taste.

This soup was just okay. I found it to be a bit too salty and the sausage was a little too greasy for my taste. I probably won't be making this soup again.
