Hungarian Bean Soup


My husband adores this soup, which, like most hungarian soup recipes, combines creamy and tangy. I do the cooking in a slow cooker.

Steps


Cover beans with water by 2 inches and bring to a boil.
Let stand 1 hour , then drain.
Cover with about 2 quarts water , add ham hocks , and bring to a boil.
Cook until beans are very tender , about 1 hour.
In a medium bowl , mix flour with enough water to form a smooth , thin paste.
Stir in sour cream , then milk and mix well.
Add the mixture to the beans.
Add the vinegar.
Bring soup to a simmer.
Season with salt and pepper.

Ingredients


dried navy beans, water, ham hock, flour, sour cream, milk, vinegar
