The main difference, though, is that she added both buttermilk and sweet cream after the cooking was done, and before serving it (instead of sour cream.) And summer savory is the most important spice... I agree.

I added a handful of pot barley to thicken it up. Also some cumin and beef boullion powder along with salt and pepper and a bundle of summer savory to flavor it. A friend taught me the method of preserving the summer savory. In summer, when the plant is just at the right stage in my garden - fresh and green before flowering, I gather up handfuls and tie them in bundles very tightly with kitchen string, then freeze them. It's so simple to throw a tied bundle into my soup in winter - and then to remove it once it's done its seasoning job. I have the space so I plant several rows of summer savory at 2 week intervals in the spring. The soup makers in my community are thrilled when I bring them some of this fresh aromatic herb which I harvest in abundance.Ruthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36134113.post-43529888758430744132009-02-16T10:35:00.000-08:002009-02-16T10:35:00.000-08:00Was looking for a green bean soup recipe - and you...Was looking for a green bean soup recipe - and yours came up on google.
