Bruine Bonensoep
Dutch brown-bean soup with pork ribs, leek, potato, root vegetables and warm spice.
About Bruine Bonensoep
Bruinebonensoep is a hearty Dutch brown-bean soup. This profile follows Allerhande's named Hollandse version, which builds its broth from pork ribs before adding brown beans, leek, potato and other vegetables.
Cloves, bay leaf and nutmeg give the soup a warm, gently spiced aroma. Onion, carrot, celery and leek add savoury sweetness, while beef stock cubes deepen the meaty broth and parsley freshens the finish.
The finished soup is thick and substantial, with creamy brown beans, soft potato and small pieces of pork among the vegetables. It is served hot as a main-course soup.
