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
