Navy Bean And Ham Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, add water, ham bone and pre-soaked beans. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until beans are close to soft.
• Remove bone and cut off remaining meat. Remove 1/3 of beans and mash with potato masher or food processor.
• Return ham and beans back to stock pot and add onion, carrots, celery, garlic powder, pepper and paprika. If you are using dripping from a previously cooked ham add those now. Simmer until vegetables are tender and serve.

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat oil; add carrot, onion, celery, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Turn off Saute mode.
• Stir chicken broth, beans, paprika, and thyme into the pot. Close and lock the lid; move the valve to Sealing. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 34 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Select Cancel/Keep Warm when cooking is done. Release pressure for 10 minutes using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions. Move valve carefully to Venting and release remaining pressure using the quick-release method, about 5 minutes.
• Unlock and remove lid; stir ham and tomatoes into the bean mixture. Close and lock the lid; move the valve to Sealing. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 7 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method, about 5 minutes. Season soup with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Rinse and sort the navy beans. Place in a Dutch oven with 8 cups water. Bring to a boil for 2 minutes and remove from heat. Let stand, covered, until beans are softened, about 5 hours.
• Drain the navy beans and discard the soaking liquid. Rinse beans and return to the Dutch oven. Add ham hocks, chicken broth, 4 cups water, onion, parsley, garlic powder, basil, black pepper, oregano, nutmeg, and bay leaves. Bring soup to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Mix carrots, celery, and potato flakes into the soup until well combined. Cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more.
• Take ham hocks from the pot and place on a cutting board until cool enough to handle. Remove meat from the bones and cut into bite-sized pieces. Return meat to the pot and warm through over medium heat, about 3 minutes.
