Nancy's Navy Bean Soup


This goes with the cornbread recipe that I posted last night.

  • 1 lb. dry navy beans
  • 2 quarts (8 cups) water
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/3 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 coarsely chopped onion
  • 1 cup coarsely chopped ham
  • baking soda for rinsing beans

1. Sprinkle baking soda over dry beans that have been in a colander.

2. Rinse beans.

3. Search the beans for bad quality beans and remove them.

4. Pour rinsed beans into a crockpot.

5. Add 2 quarts water.

6. Add chopped onion and ham.

7. Add salt and pepper. Stir.

8. Cook on the low crockpot setting for 10 hours.

9. Serve with cornbread and enjoy.
