I add celery, carrots, ham, bacon, diced potatoes.

[@annastraka6843]

I was thinking to add some potatoes I have already too

[@marybethfrain7165]

William Lesh when do u add these

[@katiescar1ett]

I hate boiled potatoes but I sure like the rest of your additions. :)

[@dkyelak]

I add carrots, celery seed and a tbsp of red chilli flakes before pressure cooking. There are so many ways of making this. You could even add a bit of liquid smoke instead of ham if you don't eat meat.

[@takecontrolbeauty6402]

I want to add this too! When did u add it to the soup ??

[@siliconpenguin]

@4:28 he added the dry beans without washing them... That's how I did it for four decades. And then I tried washing(rinsing) them in a clear glass bowl. Just run water on them and agitate, dump the dirty water and repeat until the water stops being dirty. And yeah, sometimes the water looks like you just washed your dog in it. I always wondered why sometimes my beans tasted "earthy". RINSE YOUR BEANS!!

[@karencivit2781]

Keeps the stones out of your beans that way too!

[@lindacantwell8266]

I agree - he needs to wash his beans.

[@dkyelak]

I pre soak them too. It gets rid of enzymes that can make digestion difficult (gas), cleans them and cuts way back on cook time.

[@juliesmith7682]

If you re-watch the video he did rinse the beans you put them in a colander and rinsed them.

[@siliconpenguin]

@@juliesmith7682 No, no he does not. Go to 4:19. He even says "my beans have not been soaked, they're totally dry". At what point do you even see a colander?

[@zbeebs]

I've been making pretty much this exact same recipe for a while, but I use the 15-bean soup mix, and also add in a smoked turkey leg into the pot before cooking. Once it's done, the meat falls off the turkey leg and adds amazing flavor.

[@cheddar2648]

@J G what about a bat wing? ;P

[@MsJanetLouise]

Can you put raw chicken in with beans before cooking?

[@fannyfreckle]

THANK YOU! Oh my goodness…this sounds sooooo amazing and my hubby doesn’t like bacon so this Is such a great idea!

Sounds yummy!🥰

I'll bet turkey necks would be good too. Ever tried that?

[@maryfreedberg5866]

Just made this and OMG SO SO SO GOOOOOOOD...did everything you said to sautés and add the broth and the beans and cooked for 35 minutes....then just removed a half cup of beans and smashed to a paste added back in pot...then the italian seasoning, tyme, smoked paprika 1 tbsp...the maple syrup and i browned 1lb of ground chuck and drained it and added it to the pot ...sauted on medium for 15 minutes so it could thicken up.....it was so so so so gooooood ...MY VERSION OF ITALIAN WEDDING SOUP ....THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING US TO BE MORE CREATIVE IN THE KITCHEN.....

[@nancybastarache6063]

Please make more of these kind of recipes! Using simple ingredients we already have in the cupboard. It is so helpful right now!! Thank you.

[@richwood2741]

Great recipe. Only thing i would add is to make sure you go through your beans and check that you do not have any rocks in the bag and rinse the beans . That it was a great video idea.

[@cathydanks8908]

Hi there. I LOVE how you are giving substitute ingredients to use (onion/no onion, butter/Olive oil). You make it really easy to use what we have on hand. 🙌 Thank you.v☺️☺️

[@kima.6611]

Thank you for the base recipe! My version tonight had: 5 diced hot Italian sausage (from the freezer), 1 onion, several small sweet peppers, chopped fresh green beans (cause they were in the fridge), 2 gutted yellow squash (cause they were in the fridge), chicken broth (from the freezer), chopped garlic, red chili flakes, ground mustard, ground cumin and about 2 cups lentils from a bulk container I had on hand. I didn't stop and blend. I let it go through the whole cycle. It was so delicious!

[@emirumpf9947]

works great. i love that it has stainless steal pot inside kzbin.infoUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg and not the one with coating. we used to have a coated pot before, and the coating slowly peels, and i am sure went into the food that we cooked. Absolutely love stainless steel, and will not use a coated product again.This pot has many settings and many buttons, and i need to sit down with a manual to figure out which setting to use. I used the basic functions, and even though i am not technologically skilled, i turned it on and assembled it without any help.Very satisfied with this product overall.

[@misisipimike8020]

You are so good at this. The way you teach recipes is so soothing and calming. Thank you.

[@TheOriginalRick]

Just made a pot of Navy beans in the IP. For many years I've been substituting a smoked turkey wing for the traditional ham hocks. It works perfectly. Just put the wings into the pot along with the beans. Take them out when done, debone them and put the meat back into the soup. Absolutely delicious.

[@deborahrodney6562]

I can’t wait to try this. I love how many unique spices and sauces you add. In Louisiana we add sausage or ham to our beans.

[@theresageorge5796]

I have LOVED your channel for about a year now (wish I had come on earlier), and I'm in the process of watching ALL your videos!!!! I've referred you to everyone I know who cooks IP. Today, I embrace your attitude of hominess!!!! Thanks for posting and for all your creativity!!!!!

[@tova41951]

Looks delicious. Mother made some bean soup for Dad because he was from TN and he grew up on it. Dad liked smoked ham hock in it and of course the cornbread cooked in a cast iron skillet. I didn't like it as a kid but grew to tolerate it later. You made me hungry for a bowl of bean soup. Especially now with the Instant Pot, it's easy peasy.

[@TheSub2rainen]

We often ate this. Originally survival food that became a family favorite. We never called it soup, though, just a pot of beans. We almost made some today, but no Hicks or necks to be found!

[@melaneymattson3733]

Thank you for the basics. Last night I made lima bean and ham hock soup. This is the time to get down to healthy, hearty basics! Beans in the Instant Pot are awesome!!

Just need some corn bread to go with the bean soup. Thank you for doing this video. I just bought a couple bags of beans to attempt bean soup. Love your videos.

[@yakityyob]

Hey, Jeff! Just made the soup! I had to use ham stock instead and I also added a finely chopped celery stalk and a couple of thinly sliced carrots. As it turned out, my Northern Beans were still a little too hard so I cooked them an additional 15 minutes. They turned out perfect. I also used all the spices maple syrup and it turned out delicious!

Gotta say that the overnight soak is worth it. The beans cook much more evenly.

[@stevelogan5475]

@ Hoji Scott , yes my friend , i agree 100% , i'm 57 yr., old irishman from rural Kentucky, cooking since i was 9, always soak your beans overnight for tenderness, taste, even cooking, & if they cause you any stomach bloating/discomfort or flatuant problems check my post i will make as to an easy remedy for that ( unless he does) . I like to read sub/viewer posts before i watch the video recipe. Soup beans, cornbread & raw onions are a staple meal in rural Ky. God Bless you & yours friend, getting ready to view the recipe

[@lilybee_]

Hoji Scott. How long do you cook them in the IP after soaking overnight?

@@lilybee_ drain the water and proceed like normal, I've done it both ways, I prefer not soaking cause it's easiest, but soaking does yield a better product.

Pre-soaking beans allows them to get rid of oligosaccharides, the chemicals that make you fart when you eat beans.

I love this soup! When I make it I always make two batches because I use the emersion blender to purée the entire batch. Then I make a second batch and don’t purée any of it and mix the two batches together. I live alone now so I freeze much of the soup in single serving containers.

[@hollypark4022]

Love Jeff and his IP recipes! Big fan! Helpful tip: When cooking dried beans - of any kind - in an IP . . . Always 'Prepare' dried beans for safely cooking in an IP! Consuming under-cooked dried beans cooked in an IP / slow cooker can be dangerous if beans are not prepared properly for this type of cooking. How to avoid toxic tragedy: Throughly, throughly rinse beans, then soak beans OVER NIGHT; next morning, drain and rinse, rinse, rinse soaked beans in clean, cold water (multiple times); next, in fresh water boil beans in a separate pot, on the stove top, for 10 minutes then drain before following any IP dried-bean recipes. Your prepared beans should now be safe for preparing any 'dried-bean' IP recipes for drama-free consumption. (Sorry, yes, extra steps - necessary.)

[@sandygrogg1203]

I am nearly 81 years old, and I have never soaked my beans. Neither did my mother. It’s just never been necessary. I will be putting chunks of ham in my bean soup. That will add a lot of flavor. No course there will be onion and I do have garlic. I also use better than bullion as a base for all of my broth. That stuff is amazing. I like the idea of using my immersion blender to thicken the soup. Good idea.

[@colleenbeamer6403]

Great recipe. I started with a small onion and a small shallot and sautéed these along with some matchstick carrots. I used chicken broth and navy beans and for the seasonings, just Lawry's, pepper, garlic powder and thyme. Turned out great!
