Steps:
- Place the beans in cold water to cover by about 3 inches. Soak for 8 hours or overnight, refrigerated. Drain well and set aside.
- Combine the whole garlic clove, thyme, peppercorns, and bay leaf in a cheesecloth bag. Tie the bag closed and set aside.
- Place the bacon in a large saucepan over medium heat and saute for about 7 minutes or until the fat has rendered out and the bacon is crisp. Drain off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat. Add the onion, carrot, leek, and celery and saute for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are soft but have not taken on any color. Add the reserved soaked beans and cheesecloth bag along with the stock or broth and bring to a boil. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Lower the heat and simmer, stirring frequently, for about 1 1/2 hours or until the beans are very tender.
- Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the escarole and saute for about 4 minutes or until the escarole is wilted. Add the escarole to the soup. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and, if using, crushed red pepper. Serve hot with Dad's Sausage Bread, if desired.
- Heat the water, olive oil and honey in a small saucepan over low heat to 115 degrees. Set aside and keep warm.
- Combine flour, yeast and salt in a large mixing bowl. Slowly drizzle water mixture over the flour, blending the liquid in with a wooden spoon. If the dough is too sticky to handle, add additional flour, 1/4 cup at time. Place the dough on a clean surface and knead for about 10 minutes. Cut the dough into 3 equal pieces and form each piece into a loaf shape. Cover and allow to rise for about 1 hour or until loaves have doubled in size.
- While the dough is rising, place the sausage and black pepper in a nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes or until nicely browned. Drain off excess fat; place the sausage on a triple layer of paper towel to drain thoroughly.
- Place 2 of the eggs in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside. Place remaining egg in another small bowl and whisk to blend. Set aside.
- Combine the sausage with the mozzarella, Parmesan cheese and parsley. Add the 2 beaten eggs and mix to combine well. Set aside.
- Cut into but not through each loaf of dough, lengthwise, and open up each half. Place an equal portion of the sausage mixture down the center of each loaf. Pull the sides up and over the sausage to encase it, working the dough closed. Place the loaves, seam side down, on a greased cookie sheet or pizza stone. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each loaf with remaining beaten egg. Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for at least 10 minutes before cutting. Serve warm.

Steps:
- In a large pot over medium heat, saute your diced bacon for about five minutes until it starts to release its fat. If it's really fatty, drain some, so that you keep about a tbsp of bacon fat in the pot. Add your carrots, onion, and garlic. Cook for about 10 min, until vegetables are soft.
- Add your chicken broth, water, and all of your spices except for the salt (be cautious with the salt--this soup can easily get too salty). Cover pot with lid. Bring to a boil. Add the beans and the cabbage, and let come to a gentle boil again. At this point, bring it to a gentle simmer on a lower heat and let it simmer away for about 30 minute Stir every once in a while so nothing sticks to the bottom.
- Taste and adjust seasoning. If you'd like, add the tsp of salt here, if it needs it. If you find you want to bring out the sweetness of the cabbage just a touch because your bacon is too smokey, add the sugar. (I liked the small bit of sugar.).
- Simmer for another 10 to 15 minutes, adjusting seasonings as needed. Discard your bay leaf and serve. Garnish with a tbsp of freshly grated Parmesan (it adds a really nice nutty depth to the soup.).
- Stored in an airtight container, soup will keep well in the fridge for about 3-4 days.
WHITE BEAN AND BACON SOUP WITH ESCAROLE

CHICKEN, BACON AND WHITE BEAN SOUP PORTUGUESE STYLE
One of Emeril Lagasse's favorites. This is a soup his mom would always cook. He describes it as a stick-to-your-ribs soup. Enjoy! *Note: the dried beans need to soak for at least 8 hours. You could do that overnight* (For a quick soak, bring the beans and water to a boil over high heat and cook for 2 minutes at the boil, then remove from the heat and allow to stand for 1 hour. Drain.) Prep time does not include soaking the beans.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large (4-5 qt.) soup pot over medium heat. Add carrots, onions, celery, and bell pepper, then season with a little salt and pepper. Cook until tender and onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add kale and sauté until wilted. Add garlic, thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, and chopped tomatoes and cook for 1 more minute. Add chicken broth and water, scraping the bottom of the pot to loosen any vegetables.
- Take one and a half cans of rinsed, drained beans, smash them (with a fork or in a food processor with a little water) until they are a smooth paste, then stir into soup. Add the rest of the whole beans and Parmesan cheese rind. Add bacon. Simmer approximately 1 hour.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary. Remove any of the Parmesan cheese rind (if there is any left) and the bay leaf, stir in chopped parsley, then serve with additional freshly grated Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. A hearty meal served with a crusty bread.
- NOTE** Parmesan cheese rind is the dried end of a chunk of REAL Parmesan cheese. Just cut it off the chunk. It adds a richness and saltiness you can't get any other way. **You can substitute great northern beans for all or part of the cannellini beans. You can also substitute smoked turkey meat or ham for the Canadian bacon.

WHITE BEAN & BACON SOUP
I've been making this soup for a couple of years, loosely based on my mom's navy beans with pork hocks. I have tried it with cannellini beans, but prefer the taste and texture of the great northerns. The soup freezes really well and heats perfectly in the microwave. Cooking time does not include quick soaking the beans. I hope you enjoy it! :)
