Brothy White Bean Soup

Materials

  • 1 can of cannelli beans (without liquid)
  • 1 can of chickpeas (with liquid)
  • 1 cup of oat milk
  • 1 tablespoon starch
  • 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter
  • 1 head of garlic
  • 1 tablespoon thyme
  • 1 bayleaf
  • a pinch of chinese five spice powder
  • grated parmesan cheese
  • red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Skin and break apart the head of garlic, cut/crush each clove into 1-2 large pieces
  2. In a pot, melt butter over medium high heat, add garlic, cook until golden brown
  3. Add oat milk, chickpeas and their liquid, white beans, thyme, bay leaf, five spice, and stir to combine
  4. When mixture begins to bubble around the edges, reduce heat to simmer. Simmer for 30 min.
  5. While simmering, mix starch in a bowl with a bit of water, pour into the pot, stir until broth thickens.
  6. Season with salt + pepper to taste.
  7. Remove the bay leaf, set aside until cool enough to handle, garnish with red pepper flakes and grated parmesan cheese.

Comments

The red pepper flake adds a lot of flavor, do not skip over just because it’s a garnish.

The orginal recipe called for whole milk instead of oat milk + starch. I am lactose-intolerant so I’ll always prefer the dairy-free recipe. But YMMV.
