🍳 Instructions:

1. Prepare the beans:

   • Soak dry beans in water overnight (8–12 hours).

   • Drain and rinse. Then, boil the beans in fresh water for 10–15 minutes, discard the water, and rinse again (this reduces bloating and bitterness).

2. Cook the soup:

   • In a large pot, heat oil and sauté the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic until soft.

   • Add paprika and stir quickly (don’t burn it).

   • Add soaked beans, chopped tomatoes, bay leaf, salt, and pepper.

   • Pour in 5–6 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, until beans are fully soft.

3. Add flavoring:

   • Stir in dried savory (or thyme), and adjust salt/pepper to taste.

   • If using meat: sauté bacon or sausage in a separate pan, then add to the soup in the last 20 minutes of cooking.

   • Optional: Mix a teaspoon of flour with a bit of water and stir it in to slightly thicken the soup.

4. Finish:

   • Once everything is tender and flavors are combined, turn off heat.

   • Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
