Instructions
- Place the beans in a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Set the ham flavor packet aside to use later in the recipe.
- Add water to a level 2” above the top of the beans. Bring beans to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Remove from the heat and let sit for one hour. Do not drain.
- Place the beans and water back over high heat.
- Add the red onion, celery, garlic, herbs, pepper, ham, turnip greens, and red pepper to the pot and bring to a boil.
- Cover the pot and reduce the heat so that the soup remains at a steady simmer, not too low, and cook for an additional hour or until the beans are tender.
- Add the salt and ham flavor packet near the end of the cooking time.
- Ladle into individual serving bowls. Top each serving with diced fresh tomato and green onion.
Notes
- Turnip greens are very mild in flavor when used in a soup like this. For a more robust taste, consider using collard greens or kale.
