The secret :icon_shy of my 15 bean soup is leftover smoked ham...(Last night's dinner, see other thread.) Yes, I use Hurst's HamBeens brand beans, but forget that ham flavor packet that comes with it. Instead, add two pounds of smoked ham, cooked off the bone in a crock pot. Then instead of cooking the beans in 2 quarts of water, use the water flavored by the ham from the crockpot. Also double the garlic. :idea: About a tablespoon of Todd's Dirt is the only additional seasoning besides changing the Garlic amount.
The bread is an Artisian Ciabatta. Very light and airy on the inside, with a thick robust crust. :wink: This bread also makes a great bun for hamburgers.
