Ingredients
-
1 pound dried pinto beans
-
¾ cup olive oil, divided
-
4 stalks celery with leaves, chopped
-
1 large onion, chopped
-
4 large garlic cloves, chopped or pressed
-
1 (12 ounce) can chopped tomatoes
-
1 small bunch fresh parsley, finely chopped
-
1 tablespoon dried dill weed
-
1 tablespoon dried oregano
-
1 tablespoon dried basil
-
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
-
1 teaspoon white sugar (Optional)
Directions
-
Place beans in a large bowl or pot and cover with fresh water. Allow to soak 8 hours to overnight.
-
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, heavy soup pot. Cook celery and onion until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
-
Drain beans and add to the pot with the onion mixture. Cover with 2 inches of cold water and add tomatoes, parsley, dill, oregano, and basil. Bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat and cook until beans are soft, checking every 15 to 20 minutes and adding water as necessary, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
-
Add remaining 1/4 cup olive oil to the soup and season with salt, pepper, and sugar.
Cook's Notes:
You can use dried pink beans in place of pinto beans and honey instead of sugar.
You can use pureed tomatoes in place of chopped.
