HAM AND GREEN BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Cover green beans with water in a large pot. Add ham, bouillon, paprika, and cayenne. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to low and let simmer until beans are tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add flour and cook until almost brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in diced onion; cook until it begins to brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook and stir dried onions in the mixture until they begin to lightly brown, 3 to 4 minutes, being careful as they burn easily. Add paprika and pepper. Pour in water and stir until mixture is smooth.
• Whip sour cream in a bowl and mix into flour mixture until smooth. Stir sour cream mixture into cooled green beans. Heat soup over medium heat until simmering; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve.

HEARTY HAM AND BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat butter and olive oil in a large dutch oven or stockpot over MED HIGH. Once hot, add the ham bone and brown on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Set ham bone aside on a plate.
• Reduce heat to MED, and add carrots, celery, and onion. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring often, until softened.
• Add garlic and cook another minute.
• Add beans, diced ham, Italian seasoning, cumin, thyme, black pepper, rosemary, and red pepper flakes (if using). Pour in chicken broth, water, and add bay leaves (if using), then give everything a gentle stir.
• Return ham bone to the pot, nestling it in, along with any juices that have accumulated on the plate (those are full of flavor).
• Increase heat to MED HIGH and cover. Once soup has come to a high simmer or gentle boil, reduce heat to MED LOW and simmer for about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally, as the beans and ham can settle to the bottom and you don't want them to scorch.
• Remove ham bone and bay leaves (if used), and give the soup a taste. If needed, add a pinch of salt. Ham bones contain a lot of sodium, so I prefer to add the salt afterwards, if needed. Serve hot.

HAM AND STRING/GREEN BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Place the ham in large pot and fill pot about half way with either water or chicken stock, add onion, and celery and cover. Bring to a boil and turn down to simmer for about 30 minutes to an hour. (If ham is on the bone let it simmer for about 90 minutes or until the ham starts to fall off the bone before proceeding.).
• Add carrots, potatoes, and string beans to pot and continue simmering for about 30 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.
• If using a ham bone remove ham from bone while the veggies are cooking and discard the bone.
• When potatoes are done mix butter and flour to form paste, slowly add to pot to slightly thicken broth. (You don't want it gravy thick but to have a little body so more or less of the mixture might be needed depending on how much broth there is.).
