List of Ingredients
- 1 pound dried pinto beans, sorted, rinsed
- 15 cups water, divided
- 1 cup chopped lean ham (about 5 ounces)
- 1 large onion, chopped

- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
DIRECTIONS
Combine beans, 10 cups water, ham, and onion in a stockpot; cover

for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add remaining ingredients, including
remaining 5 cups water, and simmer, covered, 30 minutes or until beans
are tender, stirring occasionally. If a thicker "soup" is desired, mash
some of the beans with a spoon during this last 30 minutes of cooking.
