This hearty soup combines the comforting flavors of white beans, smoked ham, and fresh kale for a satisfying meal.
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Using extra virgin olive oil adds a rich flavor to the base of the soup.
Add the smoked ham, diced onion, and minced garlic to the saucepan. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
Ensure the garlic doesn't burn as it can turn bitter.
Stir in the dried sage and cook until fragrant.
Cooking the sage releases its essential oils, enhancing the soup's flavor.
Pour in the chicken broth and add the white beans. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Add the kale and cook until it wilts.
Tear the kale into bite-sized pieces for easier eating.
Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
Taste the soup before adding salt, as the ham and broth may already be salty.
