Ingredients
- 4 bay leaves
- 2 celery stalks (diced)
- 1 carrot (diced)
- 1 salt and pepper
- 525 gr black turtle beans
- 475 ml chicken stock
- 120 gr onion (diced)
- 16 ml honey
- 3 slices bacon
Combine all the ingredients and add enough water to cover the beans. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until beans are thoroughly cooked. Add more water as required. Remove bay leaves and puree the soup in a blender. Then pass the soup through a fine sieve to remove the skins of the beans. ----
