Put beans water, onion, and celery in saucepan; bring to boiling point, and then simmer 30 minutes. Rub through a sieve, add tomato, chili to tomato mixture. Cook together and heat through.
Mustard and/or horse-radish was also used by the Hancock shakers to season Baked Bean Soup . Serves 6
beans. I thought that this was a really wonderful, simple Saturday night soup to whip up. Mary Curtis
