Buddy Bean Soup



I saw this in the January/February issue of Hobby Farms Home Magazine and thought it was a great idea! I recreated it in my own kitchen. I did change up a couple of things and I have a few suggestions.

 

Buddy Bean Soup Mix

For this project you will need:

  • 2 cups of dried beans. You should measure out 1/2 cup of 4 types of beans. (I used black-eyed peas, black, navy, and kidney beans)
  • 1-pint canning jar
  • rubber band
  • 4- 8 in. squares of cheesecloth  (Instead of cheesecloth, I would suggest using left over material from a project that is not too loud. You will need an 8-inch square.)
  • Raffia ribbon
  • label

Seasoning:

In a cheese cloth or left over material,

  • 2 dried bay leaves
  • 1 T. dried minced parsley
  • 1 T dried minced onion
  • 1 tsp of garlic powder
  • 2 tsp. of seasoning salt

Layout cheesecloth layers and place the bay leaf on first, then the minced ingredients, then the powder and salt. Wrap rubberband around the seasoning pouch.

***You will have spillage if you use the cheesecloth. I would strongly suggest left over material.

Here is the friendship poem for the soup:

Soup to warm the soul, from me to you,
Thanks for being a friend so true,
Layers of colorful memories shared,
Seasoned with all those times you cared.
Thanks for being a special friend,
May your soup pot have no end!
