How To make Two Bean Soup

Simple Vegetarian 13 Bean Soup Recipe - EatSimpleFood.com

Recipe:

This is a classic and simple 13 bean soup recipe for when you don't have a lot of ingredients hanging around the house. Plus 13 bean soup is uber tasty, filling, and satisfying.

I use a vegetarian 13 bean soup mix from Bob's Red Mill, but any bean mixture would work perfect. There are also many 16 bean soup mixes that can be used with this vegetarian bean soup recipe.

Different beans generally take different cooking times. Smaller beans like navy or black beans seem to take especially longer than larger ones like fava. The lentils may break down and make it very creamy while other beans give it more soft but chewy substance.

All in all, the beans breaking down in different ways is perfectly normal and gives the soup texture. There is no way around getting every bean in 13 bean soup to have the same chew factor. It's how it's supposed to be!

Soaked vs. Unsoaked Beans for 13 Bean Soup:

Either way works. Soaking the beans softens the beans and minimally reduces the cooking time because it has rehydrated the beans.

I drain the bean liquid and cook them in fresh water but this is mostly out of habit and because it cleans them at the same time. I cooked them once in the soaking liquid (and also added more water/broth) and it tasted really flavorful and not like dirt at all ????

I like to soak the 13 bean soup mix over night (if I remember!) to reduce cooking time from 2 - 2 ½ hours to ~ 1 ½ hours but the bean soup recipe below is for cooking the beans without soaking on the stovetop. Because, not all of us have the forethought to think about it the night before.

To soak the 13 bean mix: cover in 3 of water for ~ 8 hours at room temperature. Put a lid on them but leave it cracked a lot (25%) so gas can escape and so the beans don't boil over. The partial lid is just so to minimize any flying bugs getting in but it's not necessary. If beans are going to be soaked much longer than 8 hours then refrigerate.

Troubleshooting 13 Bean Soup:

13 Bean soup too thick? Add a little broth or water. Soup too thin? Let it cool down. Bean soup always thickens as it cools.

Don't have broth in your pantry? Use water and add salt to taste in a pinch.

Craving some meat in your bean soup? Add some ham or cooked bacon to this recipe.

Wanna add a little more umami? Add some shredded Parmesan cheese as a garnish. Wanna add more bulk to your bean soup? Serve it with rice and an avocado or some crusty bread or toast.

13 Bean Soup Mix Recipe FAQS:

Do I need to soak the beans before cooking?

Nope. Soaking the beans reduces the cooking time by about 20% generally speaking so don't sweat it unless trying to save a little cooking time.

Can I salt the beans at the beginning of cooking? I heard they won't get tender if I salt them too early.

Salt them! I've tried it both ways and thought the beans salted early and often made the better bean soup.

Can I cook the beans in the soaking water?

Yup. It produces flavorful soup

Can 13 bean soup be made in a slow cooker or instantpot?

13 bean soup can also be made in a slow cooker or crockpot on low for ~ 8 hours or in the instant-pot (sorry don't know exact setting ???? but I prefer just using a sturdy pot on the stovetop.

Serving Size: 6

Ingredients:

-1 Tbsp olive oil
-1 small onion, diced
-¼ tsp salt
-2 tsp chili powder
-½ tsp garlic powder
-2 cups dried mixed beans or 13 bean soup mix
-15 ounces can tomato sauce
-8 ½ cups broth (vegetable or chicken)
-2 Tbsp fresh oregano, chopped - optional as garnish

Instructions:

-Bring a stockpot to medium high heat and add the oil. When hot, add the onions and the salt (the salt helps break down the onion quicker).

-Cook ~ 4-7 minutes or until translucent (turn down the heat if they start to brown).

-Stir in the chili powder and garlic.

-Add beans, tomato sauce, and broth.

-Stir and bring to a boil.

-Reduce heat and simmer ~ 2- 2 ½ hours covered or until all sizes and varieties of beans are soft and tender. Remember to stir occasionally. The soup will reduce as it cooks, so consider adding water in ½ -1 cup increments if needed at ~ 1-2 hours in to make sure it's not to thick.

-Add salt to taste and garnish with fresh oregano.

Happy Eating!

Black bean soup is a staple recipe in many countries around the world. There are versions from Mexico, Spain, Puerto Rico, and other countries in the Caribbean and Latin America.
