Steps:

• Chop the onion into small cubes and set aside.

AUNTIE'S GREEN BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• For the ham starter: Trim meat off the bone. Place meat and bone in a pressure cooker and cover with water. Pressure cook for 45 minutes. Release pressure, then clean and chop meat and strain broth. This can be divided into 4 portions of starter. Freeze 3 of the portions for future use and set the remaining portion aside.
• For the glace: Put flour and salt in food processor. While it's running, stream in the eggs. Mix thoroughly. Put bench flour on a table, then dump dough out and knead to combine. Let rest 20 minutes. Flour table again and roll to about 1/4-inch thick, then cut into small squares with a pizza cutter. Make sure there's enough flour so the dumplings don't stick together. Rough them up in your hands to make them rustic looking. Put into a dry strainer and shake off excess flour.
• For the soup: Combine the reserved ham starter, ham base, green beans and their juice and potatoes in a pot. Add water to fill about three-quarters of the way. Bring it all to a boil. Add the glace directly to the pot and cook until they float.
• Combine the evaporated milk, sour cream and heavy cream in a separate bowl. Add some hot broth and whisk until completely smooth. Add the tempered cream mixture to the soup. Add salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste. Let simmer together for 45 minutes.

GREEN BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat up 2 or 3 tablespoons of olive oil and add 2 tablespoons of butter.
• Once the butter melts, add finely chopped onions and garlic and sautee for a few minutes.
• Add finely diced bacon and saute for 5 more minutes. You can also use cooked ham for this green bean soup recipe.
• In the meantime, clean the green beans and dice your potatoes.
• Add the green beans and potatoes, mix well and sautee for 5 more minutes.
• Pour in the chicken stock/broth and water. Add 4-5 allspice corns, 3 bay leaves and a generous amount of salt & pepper.
• Cover the pot and simmer on low for 30 minutes.
• Use the time to hard boil 4-5 eggs. Once cooked, peel and finely chop these.
• Once 30 minutes have elapsed, remove the bay leaves from our green bean soup.
• Mix 3 tablespoons of all purpose flour with 500ml (5 cups) of whipping cream.
• Whisk the cream & flour mixture into the soup and make sure no lumps are forming.
• Keep stirring the soup until it thickens, it will take 2-3 minutes as the flour cooks.
• Add the chopped eggs and fresh dill into the green bean soup now. Season with a pinch of ground nutmeg.
• Now comes the most important phase, we need to finalize the taste with sugar and vinegar. I've added 5 tablespoons of sugar and 4 tablespoons of vinegar. Please keep in mind that you might have to adjust these amounts based on what sugar, and especially vinegar, you are using. Aim for a balanced sweet & sour taste, where none of them dominates.
• Simmer for a few minutes so the flavors combine and give the soup a final taste. You will likely have to add more salt, which is usually the case with creamy soups that contain potatoes and this green bean soup is no exception.
• Once you're happy with the taste, our green bean soup is ready. I'm serving it with fresh bread and some more chopped dill as garnish.
