Axeman's 15 Bean Soup

The first time I had this was at a gathering, and the entire pot was devoured in less than 20 minutes.

  • 1 pkg 15 Bean Soup Mix (Hambeen brand; discard seasoning)

  • 1 pkg Large Lima Beans (16 oz)

  • 2 large onions, chopped small

  • 1 full bulb garlic, peeled and crushed

  • 2 14 oz cans tomatoes

  • 10 Serrano Peppers, cored, seeds removed, finely diced

  • 3 Poblano Peppers, cored, seeds removed, finely diced

  • 1 tsp Basil

  • 2 tsp Cumin

  • 1 tsp Sage

  • 1 Tbs salt

  • 1 Tbs Pepper

  • 4 Tbs lemon Juice

  • Wash and sort beans. Cover with water and 1 Tbs Salt, soak overnight.

  • Drain and rinse beans. Add 10 cups water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 hours. Keep stirring.

  • Add all ingredients (except lemon juice) to soup pot, and simmer while stirring occasionally for ½ hour. When the soup is fully cooked, you can roughly puree about a third of the soup. Add lemon juice and stir before serving. Very best topped with a dollop of sour cream.
