Guest guest Posted April 4, 2002 Report Share Posted April 4, 2002 Minestrone -Makes four servings - Ingredients 1 C. northern beans, soaked overnight 1 C. diced, onions 1/3 C. diced celery 1 T. sesame oil, optional 4 green cabbage leaves, chopped 1/8 tsp. oregano, optional 1/8 tsp. basil, optional 1 C. wax beans 5 C. filtered water 1 inch kombu 1 tsp. kudzu Sweet miso Parsley to garnish Preparation: Heat oil in a soup pot over medium-low heat. Add onions, celery, and herbs, and saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Add kombu, beans, and water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook for 1 hour, or until beans are cooked. Add wax beans and cabbage and cook for 5 more minutes. In a small bowl dilute the kudzu with 1 tablespoon cold water. Add the miso into it, stir well, and add to the soup. Cook for 5 more minutes. Serve in individual bowls and garnish with parsley. Note: If you want a more creamy consistency, add 2 cups of the minestrone into a blender. If you want a more soupy texture, add more water and probably you may need to add a little more miso. _______________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
