Hi CPG!! Happy New Year.
I wonder what happens if I just threw everything from recipe, including dry beans-unsoaked into the crock pot would they ever cook up? I remember as a kid (many moons ago) I tried cooking beans and 4 days later they still were hard as rocks. Did I mess up again???
Yes Nancy, they beans must be soaked. It helps them to swell so they will cook, as well as clean them. Most dried beans, peas and etc. are not cleaned before they are packaged, as they don’t want them to swell prior to packaging them.
Hello- thank you so much for the recipe- it looks great! I’ve Pinned it for my after-Easter menu. =D
Quick question- do you use the seasoning packet that comes with the beans or skip it?
Thanks in advance!
Hi Paula, Thanks for the question! You can skip the packet as it is not needed… Happy Crocking and Happy Easter!
thanks im going to try this bean soup
We made this soup today. We could not find those beans, but we did buy a version by Bob’s Red Mill. It is so good! Thank you for a great recipe!
Can I use stock instead?
Courtenay please make this recipe your own, and add the ingredients of your choice, I am sure it will taste wonderful! Happy Crocking!
So I soak, drain, and then add the broth for cooking?
That is correct Sarah… so YUMMY! Happy Crocking!
[…] probably should have been, but tasty all the same! The recipe was adapted using these two recipes: Get Crocked 15 Bean Soup & Hurst’s 15 Bean […]
Should the package of spices from the bean package be added to the soup or just use the bay leaves?
Can I use these beans ?
