What with the State-of-the-Union address, it’s a good time to cook up a batch of what is usually called Congressional Bean Soup. It’s full of beans and ham, which is probably where it gets its name, but I don’t think the President will mind if we rename it this time around.

Simple Black Bean Soup
January 18th, 2010 — Bean
A fine soup for a cold and rainy day, this black bean soup sticks to your ribs, thanks to the bits of ham and the butter. You can also spice it up with chili powder, or cayenne, if you prefer a hotter concoction. Also, for a vegetarian dish, leave out the ham hock, but add vegetable stock in place of at least half the water, to add flavor.
