Crockpot Old-Fashioned Black Bean Soup
- Number of Servings: 6
Ingredients
2 (15.5 oz) cans - low sodium black beans, rinsed and drained1 ham bone or ham hock6 cups chicken stock3 tbsp unsalted butter2 medium yellow onions, chopped2 garlic cloves, minced1 cups celery, chopped, including leaves1 tsp marjoram1 bay leaf1/4 tsp black pepper1/2 cup dry sherry
Put beans, ham bone/hock, and broth in Crockpot and cook on HIGH until boiling, about 1 hour.
In the meantime, melt the butter in a large saucepan on medium heat. Add onions, garlic, and celery and cook until softened, about 5 mins. Add this mixture, bay leaf, and marjoram to the Crockpot and cook for 7 hours on LOW.
Add pepper and sherry and cook for an additional 15 mins on LOW.
Remove the bone/hock and add any bit of meat back into the soup. In batches, pulse the soup in a food processor to the desired texture (I prefer more chunky-this takes about 3 pulses per batch). You could also use an imersion blender to puree the soup.
