Ingredients
1 pound dried great northern beans
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup sliced celery
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons butter
1 meaty ham bone
2 cups water
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) stewed tomatoes
2 bay leaves
2 whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 cups milk
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Place beans in a Dutch oven or soup kettle; add water to cover by 2-in. Bring to a boil; boil for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; cover and let stand for 1 hour.
Drain beans and discard liquid. In the same kettle, saute onion, celery and garlic in butter until tender. Add beans, ham bone, water, broth, tomatoes, bay leaves, cloves and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 2 hours.
Remove ham bone, bay leaves and cloves. When cool enough to handle, remove ham from bone; cut into small pieces and return to soup. Chill for 8 hours or overnight.
Skim fat from soup. Stir in milk; cool on low until heated through. Just before serving, stir in cheese.
