Betty's Southern Living White Bean Soup Recipe

[jammingwithmarley]

Woa looks so good

[tonybean37]

How much money did they send you for that recipe? :))

[bettyskitchen]

@tonybean37 I believe it was $12.00...not that much, but worth writing up the recipe and sending it in. The annual recipes book they sent me was worth more, so that was the major gift, along with index-sized cards with my recipe on them.

great recipe,easy to make and lends itself to variation.sometimes we add one stalk chopped celery,soup stock or additional water and 1/2 cup quick pearled barley to the recipe.

[zasvedogovore]

It works well...I did it in many variations of water quantity, followed by roasti in portions of clay pottery. thanks a lot, I used to add flour to reach desired thickness

i love your recipes!!

[Raxarax]

wow Betty, you're probably the first southerner that I've ever seen that actually has some idea of 'class'. I'm surprised. Is there 5 broken down cars out in your front yard or what? What gives with the southern trash anyway? I've lived in Texas for seven years now and all I can say is that Southerners are poor white trash that lack class or manners.

Hi Betty! Congrats!

I am trolling the web for a great way to cook up white beans.

Is this soup something you serve as a side or main course?

[bettyskitchen]

@lynnybradford It could be either. Just double the recipe if it's the main course, and serve it with crackers, cornbread, French bread, or something like that.

[PGudmunson]

I can't believe those rascals changed your recipe.

Draining? That's just silly!

[bettyskitchen]

I agree! Thanks for your nice comment!

Betty,you must be so proud that you're in that S L book!!!!!I must try your recipe soon as my Dad used to make a mean pot of big white navy bean soup.I grew up in NC and in the school cafeterias,they often had white navy bean soup some Fridays for lunch during the winter.

[bettyskitchen]

This is a very simple recipe that just came to me one day, and I sent it off, not expecting anything--and they liked it! Thanks for commenting!

Hi Betty, Your sidebar version lists 1/2 cup chopped onion at top, but video and sidebar at bottom state 1/4 cup chopped onion at bottom. ?

[bettyskitchen]

It should be 1/4 cup (although it would not be a problem if it were increased to 1/2 cup). Thanks for alerting me to the discrepancy!

This recipe looks really yummy. An interesting side story - I recently watched this video for the first time, and just yesterday I happened to be in a local Goodwill shop and stopped to look at the pile of cookbooks for sale. I was pleasantly surprised to find a copy of the Southern Living annual your recipe was published in. It is a lovely cookbook and I am sure i will find many other great recipes in it. I just thought it was amazing to find that exact same cookbook just sitting there!

[bettyskitchen]

What a coincidence! I hope you will find a lot a recipes you enjoy in the cookbook! Thanks for taking time to let me know!

--Betty :)

betty can i use dry beans in this recipe or should they be canned beans?

thanks

chris

[bettyskitchen]

You may use dried beans--just make sure to cook them all the way done before starting the recipe. The canned beans were just to make it quick and easy for those who would not take the time to cook the beans first. Yours will be great! Thanks again for you support of my channel. You're great!

[Katiebear08]

Love your videos! Watch you from my home Meade Co Ky

[bettyskitchen]

Thanks, Katie! I'm glad someone watches that understands KY food!

--Betty  :)

[soonfully]

This looks wonderful Betty! I think you must have a gift for cooking maybe you should consider putting out a recipe book.

[bettyskitchen]

I've thought of that...Right now it's just a fun hobby, and these videos are a way of organizing my favorite recipes and sharing them with people who are interested! Thanks for your support!

--Betty :)

[bettyskitchen]

A great idea! I wish I had thought to mention that in the video!! Thanks again for your loyal viewing.

--Betty :)

[skabibble]

Its no surprise that you would have a recipe published:) This looks real good and I bet would be equally good using leftover ham (from Easter) or even grilled ham steak bits! Might try this next week!
