Ingredients

1 lb. dried Great Northern white beans

3 Tbs. olive oil

1 onion, chopped

2 carrots, chopped

1 celery stalk, chopped

6 garlic cloves, chopped

1 6 oz. can tomato paste

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

5 cups chicken broth or water

1 Tbs. salt

2 bay leaves

1 tsp. fennel seeds

1 lb. shrimp, shelled and deveined

1/4 cup chopped, pitted Nicoise olives

Dash of red pepper sauce (such a Tobasco)

6 slices French bread

Chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)

Directions

Place beans in a bowl with enough water to cover by three inches and soak overnight.

Heat oil in a large, heavy sauce pan. Saute onion, carrots, celery and garlic for five minutes over medium-high heat until onions are translucent. Drain and rinse beans and stir into vegetables.

Stir in tomato paste and vinegar and cook, stirring, for two more minutes. Add enough stock or water to pan to cover the beans with 1-1/2 inches of liquid (about five cups). Stir in salt, bay leaves and fennel seeds. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes to one hour or until beans are tender.

Remove bay leaves. Stir in shrimp and olives into beans and heat for about three minutes or until shrimp are cooked through. Stir in red pepper sauce.

Place a slice of bread into each bowl and ladle stew over bread. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.

I agree, sounds wonderful. I love bean soups and the addition of fennel is unique, plus shrimp and olives. Added to the must try list. I haven't met a soup or salad I didn't like, and it shows. LOL
