I’ve never added baking soda. Does it leave a taste?
When I make cornbread to go with soup, I almost always make it Tex-Mex (with diced cheddar cheese, creamed corn and green chilis.)
I’ve made bean soup with great northerns, but never baby limas. I’m going to try it! Thanks, GG!
No taste, but it will froth up for a moment. :)
I like cornbread just about any way you fix it!
If you really like bean soup, see if you can find a package of 15 bean soup. It’s a dried mix, should be with the other beans. WalMart here carries it. First thing you do is throw away the seasoning packet that comes with it. Fry a pound of hot sausage with a diced up onion. Drain the sausage/onions, add to the beans/b.soda and cover with water. I cook it slow all day as well. :) Enjoy!
