Ingredients
  • Soak 3 cups of beans in a large pot of cold water for 24 hours or overnight. Drain.
  • - Add 2 quarts of cold water with the beans to the pot and bring to a boil.
  • - Drain the beans, then add 2 quarts of fresh cold water again.
  • - Simmer for 30 minutes, then add 2 Tbsp. of cumin and 1 tsp. white pepper.
  • - In a frying pan, sauté the following ingredients in 1 Tbsp. of olive oil until tender:
  • - 2 diced carrots
  • - 2 Tbsp. of finely chopped fresh ginger
  • - 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • - 1 large, finely chopped sweet onion

Directions
  1. - Add the ingredients to the soup, then cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until beans are cooked through.
  2. - During the last 15 minutes only, add sea salt to taste. (Adding the salt any earlier will harden the beans.)
  3. - Just before serving, add juice of 1 fresh lime and 3 Tbsp. of fresh cilantro.
  4. Bon appetite!
  5. Adzuki beans are growing in popularity. They can be found at health food stores and a growing number of gourmet food markets.
  6. Eat this soup at least once a week for best results. This is also a great diuretic and women need this at least once a month. Great under eye brightener...and what women doesn't want to get rid of dark circles?
