Teaching Cooking

I have taught basic cooking to my seven children and to classes of elementary children. When my youngest daughter wanted to learn, I found that taking the recipes and making them into a step-by-step format made it easier for her, so here is a blog to hopefully make cooking easier for the beginner.

Ham & Bean Soup

This is a recipe from my daughter, Kadie.  She exclaimed that it was really yummy

 Ham & Bean Soup

Mince 2 Garlic Cloves
Chop 1 Onion

Heat butter and/or bacon grease.  Add the minced cloves and chopped onion.  

Chop 1 or 2 celery stalks and add to the onion/garlic saute.

Cut ham into 1 inch cubes and add to the saute.

Grate 1 or 2 carrots into the sauté

Drained 2 can of Great Northern Beans and add to the saute.
Saute for a minute or two.

Stir in a pint of cream.

Turn to low to cook for about 10 minutes.

In another pot, boil 1 chopped potato in 1 pint (bone or chicken) broth.  When soft blend in a blender.

Mix the 2 pots together.

Cook on low for another 15 mins (or so).

Enjoy!
