How to cook deliciously - Sausage, Kale, and White Bean Soup
1. Stage
Place beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand at room temperature for 8 hours to overnight. Drain and rinse before using.
2. Stage
Pour 4 cups water into a pressure cooker and add beans. Close the lid and cook until beans are soft, about 25 minutes. Use the natural release method to release pressure. Do not drain.
3. Stage
Bring a separate pot of salted water to a boil. Cook kale in boiling water until bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Drain in a strainer and cool under cold running water. Set aside.
4. Stage
Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large soup pot. Cook linguica sausage in hot oil, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside.
5. Stage
Add shallots to the same pot; cook and stir until soft, about 3 minutes. Pour in a splash of chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits of sausage.
6. Stage
Return sausage to the pot. Add beans and their cooking liquid. Stir in remaining chicken broth. Bring soup to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes. Add kale and cook for about 4 minutes more. Season with hot sauce, salt, and pepper.
