Well, I made bean soup a couple of weeks ago and it wasn't that hard. I had
a ham bone from a ham we had been eating on for a few days, I put it in a
pot of water and boiled it for an hour or so, took it out to cool, put in
some more pieces of ham, a chopped onion and some celery, some seasoning and
some white soy beans that I had soaked overnight. Got the remaining ham off
the bone and threw it in. Cooked for 2-3 hours more, it did take longer for
the soy beans than regular beans. It was delicious and indeed very filling,
my SO mentioned how filling he found it. I didn't skim any fat off but
there wasn't a whole lot as this was a fairly lean ham, one of the spiral
sliced hams from Costco.


Most of the fat in my stock came from the chunks of fat on the skin that
I used. :-) Hence needing to cool and skim. The pressure cooked rind
chunks are tender and tasty so to me, it was worth scraping and
salvaging them...

Cheers!

Yeah, I keep forgetting to keep the ham bone for stock to I make my LC
version of pea soup. :-)
Are you aware that the white (actually called yellow) soy beans have a lot
more net carbs than the black ones? They're 8g net carbs/half cup. Black
soy beans are the only LC beans. I bought some dried white ones but
haven't used them since I found that out.

I don't have a pressure cooker, though.

It's well worth it. ;-)

The main work is making the ham bone stock from scratch, but there is no
flavor quite like it!

It's not as much work as it sounds either. Actual "hands on" time is
maybe an hour. The other is just time spend cooking and cooling.

You may want to consider one....
They are such a wonderful time saver!
I use mine instead of the stock pot
for making bone stocks other than ham.

It's also good for tougher cuts of meat
for making a pot roast. Saves electricity!
My glass top GE really spins my meter. :-(

Another good reason to use the foreman whenever
possible........

I found one site that said that but FitDay says that 1 cup of soybeans,
mature, cooked, boiled has 15g fat, 29 g protein, 17g carb less 10 fiber,
so only 7 g per cup. I figure that with the liquid and other contents a cup
of cooked beans makes 1-1/2 cups of soup which is definitely an adequate
serving. Same amount of navy beans, cooked, is 48 less 12, net 36, so there
is quite a difference.

That's for regular yellow soy beans.

For black soy beans, use the numbers from the Eden site. I spoke at some
length with one of their people about the nutritional figures and how -
on the can - they seem not to add up. She faxed me the raw numbers
before they were rounded as the government demands. They're skewed by
the rounding, but the carb count is accurate. Calorie count seems to
include all carbs whether fiber or not. Labelling laws.

Black soy beans are even lower than white soy beans. :-)

Tastier too IMHO.

Check them out on the Eden Foods website!

Yeah, I can't think of any reason to use the white ones when black are so
readily available. I use them anywhere that kidney or regular black beans
are called for. :-)

I have used those and I also have some black dry ones. I just wanted to try
the white ones.
