Hi, this is Dave for Expert Village. Today we are going to make white bean soup with
hamhocks and cornbread. Now that we assorted through the beans and we are sure that there
is no rocks or anything in there. We are going to go ahead and put them in to soak here is
how to do it. Go ahead and get a bowl and we are going to go ahead and put our beans
right in just like that. What we want is regular water just enough to cover these so just like that it doesn't take that much.
This is going to kind of soak this up what you want to do is have these over night in
the water. There is also a quick soak method that you can see on the side of any package
of these beans where you kind of simmer them as a primarily type of thing for a couple
of hours. But if you have the time just go ahead and put these in before you go to bed
they will be nice and ready the next day. What we'll do is drain these and then put
fresh water in them and we'll see how it goes.
