Ingredients
Plan ahead to soak beans:
- 16 ounces 15 Bean Soup mix (Hurst's Hambeens brand)
For the soup:
- 6 cups chicken stock
- 1 ham bone (with some meat left on it)
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 cup chopped carrots
- 1/3 cup chopped celery
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 cups chopped ham
- 1 1/2 tablespoons ground mustard
- salt and black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
Soak the beans:
- Place the dried beans in a 9×13 baking pan. Pour cool water over them so that the bean mix is covered. Allow the beans to sit in cool water at least 14 hours…but up to 24 hours. When you're ready to make the soup, rinse the beans and discard the soaking liquid.
Make the soup:
- Pour the chicken broth into a large stockpot or dutch oven and set the stove top to medium high heat. Bring to a boil, add the beans, then reduce the heat and simmer until tender (this takes about 1 hour).
- Add the hambone, onion, carrots, celery, garlic and bay leaves. Bring the soup back to a boil, then reduce heat again and simmer until the veggies are soft (about another hour).
- Add the chopped ham and mustard powder. Stir and simmer another 30 minutes.
- Remove the ham bone and bay leaf from the soup and discard. Season with salt and pepper.
