French Market Soup
Ingredients
5.5 cups water or unsalted
chicken broth
1.5 cups dried 15-bean mixture, cleaned and soaked
1/2 teaspoons instant chicken or vegetable bouillon granules
1.5 cups sliced smoked sausage or kielbasa, at least 97% lean (about 8 ounces)
1.25 cups diced unpeeled potato (about 1 medium-large)
3/4 cup chopped yellow onion
1 medium carrot, peeled and sliced
1 stalk celery, sliced (include the leaves)
2 teaspoons crushed fresh garlic
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons ground paprika
1.5 teaspoons dried savory
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Place the water or broth,
beans, and bouillon granules in a 3-quart pot, and bring to a boil over high
heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45
minutes.
Add all of the remaining
ingredients to the pot, increase the heat to medium-high, and allow the mixture
to come to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring
occasionally, for 45 to 60 additional minutes, or until the beans are soft and
the liquid is thick. Periodically check the pot during cooking, and add a little
more water or broth if needed.
Remove the bay leaves from
the soup, and discard. Ladle the soup into individual serving bowls, and serve
hot.
