THE FAMOUS SENATE RESTAURANT BEAN SOUP
Whatever uncertainties may exist in the Senate of the United States, one thing is sure: Bean Soup is on the menu of the Senate Restaurant every day. The origins of this culinary decree has been lost in antiquity, but there are several oft-repeated legends. One story has it that Senator Fred Thomas Dubois of Idaho, who served in the Senate from 1901 to 1907 and sat as chairman of the committee that supervised the Senate Restaurant, gaveled through a resolution requiring that the bean soup be on the menu every day. Another account attributes the bean soup mandate to Senator Knute Nelson of Minnesota, who expressed his fondness for it in 1903. In any case, Senators, and their guests, are always assured of this hearty, nourishing dish. They know they can rely upon its delightful flavor and epicurean qualities. (Recipe from the Honourable and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, IV, U.S. Senator, West Virginia.)

SENATE NAVY BEAN SOUP WITH A HINT OF CLOVE
Caution: don't use too much clove powder, but please don't leave it out. I found this recipe in "Beans" by Alize Green, but the directions are my own. This can be made on the stove top, or made in a pressure cooker, using less water, and having lightly salted the soaking beans, so that the pressure cooker doesn't turn beans to absolute mush. If your beans are older, this is probably not a problem.

Steps:
- Combine drained navy beans with water and ham hock, and bring to a boil. When boiling, reduce heat and simmer until the beans are tender. This can take 1 1/2 hours or more, if you forgot the beans in the back of the cabinet, like I did :).
- Take out the ham bone, picking any meat off the bones. Throw out the bone. Add meat to pot, with the rest of the ingredients, except for parsley.
- Bring soup back to a boil, then simmer until ingredients are soft.
- Take out a cup of the beans, then with a hand blender, blend the soup. Add the cup of beans back inches Salt and pepper, then serve.

Steps:
- Wash and rinse the beans and discard any debris or dark-colored beans.
- In a large stockpot, combine the rinsed beans, the ham hock, and 4 quarts of water. Over high heat, bring to a boil, then simmer over low-medium heat until the beans are soft (about 2 hours).
- When the beans are almost ready, melt the butter in a medium-sized skillet. Add the garlic, onion, carrot, and celery, and saute until all the vegetables are soft.
- Add the softened vegetables to the beans and stir well. Remove the ham hock from the soup and cut the meat into small bite-sized pieces. Add the meat back into the soup.
- Use a potato masher to slightly mash some of the beans - this will give you a nice velvety texture. Season soup with salt and pepper before serving.

Steps:
- Put the beans in a large bowl and cover with about 3 times their volume of cold water. Soak overnight in a cool place.
- Drain the beans and transfer to a large pot or Dutch oven. Add 10 cups water and the ham. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and cook until the beans are tender, about 1 hour, 30 minutes. Transfer the ham to a plate to cool slightly, then remove the bone, if used, and dice the meat. Return the meat to the pot.
- Meanwhile, cover the potato with water in a saucepan and season with salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potato is fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain the potato; transfer to a bowl with the milk and mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Add the mashed potato to the bean soup and stir until combined.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, garlic and parsley and cook until the vegetables are translucent, 7 to 10 minutes. Add the vegetable mixture to the soup, reduce the heat to low and cook 1 hour, adding up to 2 more cups water if the soup is too thick. Season with salt and pepper.
SENATE NAVY BEAN SOUP
I can't read my handwritten recipe card that this was written on because of all the spills that landed on it whilst making this delicious, comforting soup. I clipped this from a newspaper (or magazine?) years ago and my husband has since taken over the task of making this soup from any hambone that he can acquire. I do hope you enjoy this as much as we do. :)

SENATE NAVY BEAN SOUP
Steps:
- Preparation: Soak the beans in water overnight. Make sure the beans are covered with a couple of inches of water as they can expand somewhat. Drain the beans. In a heavy-bottomed soup pot, combine the vegetable stock, the drained beans and the ham hock. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 2 hours, occasionally skimming off any scum that forms on the surface. In a separate saucepan, heat the butter over a low-to-medium heat. Add the onion, celery and garlic to the butter and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the onion is slightly translucent, stirring more or less continuously. Add the wine and cook for another minute or two or until the wine seems to have reduced by about half. Add the onion mixture, parsley and the potato flakes to the soup and simmer for another hour or until the beans are tender. Remove the ham hock. Pull the meat off the bone, chop it up and return the chopped meat to the soup. If necessary, add more stock or water to the soup to adjust the thickness. Season to taste with Kosher salt and white pepper and serve right
