    Source of Recipe


    from wwr

    Recipe Introduction


    This classic Italian dish is virtually all beans with very little
    broth, and is frequently served as a side dish. If you would like
    yours more on the soupy side, simply add more stock.

    List of Ingredients




    Italian Bean Soup

    1/2 cup (125 ml) extra-virgin olive oil
    2-4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    2 Tbs (30 ml) chopped parsley
    2 cans (15 oz, 425 g each) cannellini, white kidney,
    or other white beans, drained
    1 cup (250 ml) chicken, beef, or vegetable stock
    Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    Toasted slices of Italian bread

    Heat the oil in a large pot over moderate heat and saute the garlic
    until light golden brown. Add the parsley and stir. Add the beans,
    stock, salt, and pepper and bring to a simmer. Puree about 1/2 cup
    (125 ml) of the beans in a food processor or by pressing them through
    a fine sieve and stir into the soup. Serve over toasted bread.
    Serves 4 to 6.
