Italian White Bean Soup
My Italian White Bean Soup is definitely one of those “Pat on the Back” recipes. While it may seem like a soup of this nature would be labor intensive, I can say with pride that this one isn’t. The robust flavors from the smoked ham hock and rosemary, coupled with hearty spoonfuls of cannellini beans, just screams comfort. If you’re looking for a quick and easy soup that gives you the feeling of home, then you have landed to the right place.
There are moments when I create a recipe and the outcome makes me say; that was delicious, now on to the next. Then there are those recipes that force me to stop in my tracks, and literally give myself a pat on the back because it taste so amazing. This is definitely one of those recipes.
When making this soup, you need to start by using a giant pot. This recipe creates a large batch that allows people to have seconds, and you can easily freeze it for another day.
In this recipe, I specifically made the choice to use canned cannellini beans because it eliminates hours of waiting for your beans to soak and get soft. When using canned beans, I recommend placing them in a colander and giving them a really good rinse before adding them to your pot.
Also, when making this soup, please remember that it’s ok to adjust the measurements of the ingredients to suit your needs. I’ve given you instructions on how to make my Italian White Bean Soup the way that my family loves it. However, feel free to adjust the recipe to your liking.
