INGREDIENTS:
1/2 pound or 1 cup round green beans in 2 cups water 7 cups water 1 cup beef stock
2 teaspoons salt



1 Soak the beans for 24 hours in 2 cups water.
2 Mix the beans and water in a blender until they have the consistency of a thick paste. Pour into a strainer placed over a large bowl. Put the beans remaining in the strainer back into the blender. Slowly add 2 cups water. Strain. Repeat this process until the 7 cups water have been used and the bean pulp is almost entirely absorbed. Discard the pulp that will not go through the strainer.
3 Bring the bean and water mixture to a boil. Stir frequently so that the mixture does not adhere to the bottom of the pan. Add the beef stock. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
