Here is how you make White Bean and Tomato Soup:

This recipe makes 6 servings1. Heat the oil over low heat in a heavy-bottomed soup pot and add the onion and two of the garlic cloves. cook, stirring, until the onion is soft and fragrant.2. Drain the soaked beans and add them, along wit the water, bouquet garni, and cheese rind. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hrs, until the beans are just about tender. While the soup cooks, fry up the chicken sausage in a skillet and set aside. Remove a couple heaped cups of beans and puree in a blender or food processor. Stir back into pot. Do this a couple of times.3. Add the remaining garlic, salt, tomatoes, thyme, oregano, and sausage and simmer for another 30 mins or until the beans are thoroughly tender and the broth is fragrant. Add lots of fresh ground pepper, taste for salt, and stir in the fresh basil or parsley (I had to use dried, and it tasted just fine). Remove the Parmesan rind and the bouquet garni.4.
