white bean soup

Creamy cannellini dish

White bean soup is a hearty soup featuring white beans—typically cannellini, navy, or Great Northern—as the primary ingredient.

The beans are usually simmered with aromatics like garlic, onion, and herbs, often with vegetables or meat such as kale, sausage, or ham hock: We made a big pot of white bean soup for the cold snap.

Tuscan white bean soup is a popular variation.
