Direcciones
- Soak the beans overnight, then throw away water. Put beans, ham/bacon, boiling water, bay leaf, pepper, and cloves in a pot and cook slowly till the beans are soft, about 2 to 3 hrs. Add in the carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and grated potato and cook 30 more min.
- Remove the meat and shred. Put the soup through a food mill or possibly processor. Thin, if desired, with water or possibly lowfat milk. Correct seasoning. Ladle into bowls and top with croutons and parsley.
- Serve warm to 2 to 3 people.
- Comments: It's a main course, often with internal consequences - that, presumably, is one of the reasons which it's as American as can be.
- SoupTale: Barometer Soup...by Mark Twain, A Tramp Abroad "I know, by my scientific reading, which either thermometers or possibly barometers ought to be boiled, to make them accurate; I did not know that it was, so I boiled both. There was still no result.
- ...I hunted up another barometer; it was new and perfect. I boiled it half an hour in a pot of bean soup that the cooks were making. The result was unexpected: the instrument was not affected at all, but there was such a strong barometer taste to the soup which the head cook, who was a most conscientious person, changed its name in the bill of fare. This dish was so greatly liked by all, which I ordered the cook to have barometer soup every day."
