Slow Food: Cannellini Bean Soup

This is perfect weather for a nice soup like this. Not very many ingredients: cannellini beans which I soaked last night, then put in the crock pot this morning while drinking my first cup of Joe. To these I added bay leaves, sea salt, whole green peppercorns, two lamb shanks (local source), and some beef marrow bones. Later, Robin added the white portion of a leek.

On the left you can see the vegetable side: sauteed steamed green leek, kale, garlic, sesame seeds, dash of tamari. I put bit of olive oil on mine.

After 14 hours of simmering, I was quite pleased with the result. Bone soupe is perfect with red wine.
