Looking for a cozy, hearty soup recipe to rely on during soup season? Ham and bean soup is an easy choice when you’ve got leftover ham on hand and need dinner on the table quickly. Although it tastes like it’s been simmering on the stovetop all day, this\u00a0homemade soup recipe<\/a> takes just 30 minutes from start to finish because it calls for canned (not dried) beans.<\/p>\n In a large saucepan, saute the carrots, celery and onion in butter until tender.<\/p>\n Stir in the rinsed, drained great northern beans. Add the chicken broth, cubed ham, chili powder, minced garlic, pepper and bay leaf.<\/p>\n Bring the soup to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook for 15 minutes or until heated through. Discard the bay leaf before serving.<\/p>\n Ham and bean soup will last for three to four days in an airtight container in the fridge. While it might be easiest to keep all of your leftovers in one covered pot or lidded container, storing soup in several smaller airtight containers helps it cool down faster, and makes it easier to reheat individual portions in the microwave later. You can also reheat ham and bean soup over gentle heat on the stovetop instead of in the microwave.<\/p>\n Since our ham and bean soup recipe contains no dairy, it’s one of the many soups that freeze well<\/a>. Store it in a freezer container for soup<\/a>, or ladle cooled soup into freezer bags and put them flat in the freezer in a single layer. Once they’re frozen solid, you can stack them to save space. Here are more tips and tricks for how to freeze soup<\/a>.<\/p>\n This ham and bean soup recipe is particularly easy because it calls for canned beans instead of dried beans. While you could use dried, you’d have to soak them before beginning the recipe, which requires more time.<\/p>\n You can use other types of canned beans in place of the great northern beans. Cannellini beans or navy beans would both make sensible swaps.<\/p>\n The best way to thicken this soup is to mash half of the beans in the pot before adding the remaining ingredients. If you still want the same amount of whole beans in every spoonful, simply add more than four cans of great northern beans to make up the difference. You could also add a cornstarch slurry to thicken up the soup. Often, you can apply the same tricks for how to thicken sauce<\/a> to a soup recipe.<\/p>\n Crackers always make a perfect pairing for soup. If you’ve got the time, homemade crackers<\/a>, like these\u00a0thyme sea salt crackers<\/a>, would make a particularly lovely combination with this recipe. Of course, a crusty baguette, a slice (or two) of cornbread<\/a> or even fluffy biscuits<\/a> complement most soup recipes. If you want to try something new, here are more ideas for sides for soup<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ham and bean soup is the perfect weeknight dinner.
