BEAN AND SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Pick through and rinse beans. Place in a 4 quart pot, and cover with at least 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Cover, and let stand in the refrigerator overnight.
• Drain and rinse beans. Place beans in slow cooker with canned tomatoes, broth, white wine, and vegetables. Cover, and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours.
• In a skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until done. Slice links into 1/2 inch pieces. Add meat to slow cooker, and cook soup another 30 to 60 minutes.

SAUSAGE-BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Escarole and White Bean Soup: Cook 3 chopped garlic cloves and some red pepper flakes in olive oil. Add 3 cups chicken broth, 1 head chopped escarole and a parmesan rind; simmer 15 minutes. Add 1 can white beans, parmesan and salt.
• For Sausage-Bean Soup: Make Escarole and White Bean Soup; saute 4 chopped sweet Italian sausages with the garlic.

WHITE BEAN AND SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in an 8-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the sausage, breaking it into bite-size chunks as it cooks, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate to allow excess oil to drain off.
• Add the peppers, oregano, rosemary, garlic and onions to the pot. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook until the onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, beans and tomatoes. Return the sausage to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a low simmer and cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
• Stir in the kale, heavy cream and apple cider vinegar. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
• To freeze, transfer the soup to containers with airtight lids, leaving space at the top as it will expand as it freezes. Allow the soup to cool completely before placing the lids on and freezing. Reheat until hot before serving and garnish with Parmesan cheese if desired.

• 2. Add the soup base and ham hock and cook for 25 minutes.
• 3. Add the thyme, onions, carrots, celery, potatoes and green beans and cook until veggies are done.
• 4. Remove the meat from the ham hock and return it to the soup along with the sliced kielbasa and cook another 10 minutes to heat through.

GERMAN GREEN BEAN SOUP (GRüNE BOHNENSUPPE)

Steps:

• Wash the beans, cut off the ends, and then cut them into halves or thirds depending on the size of them.
• Peel the potatoes, carrots, and celery root. Cut everything into small cubes.
• Peel the onion and finely chop it.
• Wash the leek really well (it can be quite dirty) and cut it into rings.
• Heat one teaspoon of oil in a large pot. Add the pancetta bacon and fry it for a few minutes until the fatty pieces appear cooked. Then add the onions and sauté them until the onions are translucent and the pancetta bacon is slightly brown.
• Add the vegetables (potatoes, carrots, celery root, green beans, and leek) and sauté them for around 2 minutes as well.
• Now add enough vegetable broth so that it just covers the contents of the pot. In our case, this is usually around 8 cups of vegetable broth - but it might be more or less in your case depending on the size of your pot and your vegetables.
• Add the chopped parsley and savory. Give everything a stir.
• Add the lid to the pot and bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Then turn down the heat and let the soup simmer for around 20-25 minutes until the vegetables are soft.
• Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Peel, wash, and cut the potatoes into approx. 1/4 - 1/2 inch sized cubes. Peel and finely chop the onion. Wash the other vegetables (leek, celery root, carrots), peel where necessary/desired, and chop them into small cubes or rings as well.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pot, add the onions and sauté them for a few minutes until they become translucent. Add the potatoes and other vegetables and sauté for 2-3 minutes as well.
• Now add your vegetable broth to the pot. The broth should just cover all the vegetables. In our case, this was 4 cups of vegetable broth - but it might be slightly more or less for you.
• Bring everything to a low boil, then turn down the heat and let the soup simmer for around 20 minutes with the lid on. Stir occasionally.
• In the meantime, cut the sausages into slices. Also, wash and chop the parsley.
• After the 20 minutes, add the sliced sausage, chopped parsley, whipping cream (NOT sweet already "whipped" cream), salt, pepper, and nutmeg to the soup - then give it a stir. Let everything simmer for 5 more minutes until the sausages are heated. Add more salt and/or pepper to taste, if desired.
• You can garnish the soup with some more fresh parsley before serving.
