Guest guest Report post Posted June 9, 2004 This will make a fine addition to the soup file - tell me, do you use the water from the beans in the soup? That's the way I am reading it anyway ;=) Rather than draining them, I mean? gf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted June 10, 2004 > No, I always drain them Okay ;=) Me too. Soooo, just in case there's any confusion (for people who might not have made this kinda thing before in this way), I'll have another look at the recipe file and add 'drained' if it isn't there ;=) Absolutely adore bean soup of any kind. Love beans, in fact - dunno why the whole world doesn't live on em (OK - don't tell me the obvious answer to that one *lol*) gf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
