minus-squareStillPaisleyCatlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoUnderstood it was dry beans, but for the volume of soup and flour-fat roux to thicken, seems like a fairly thin soup. 1 pound dry beans is about 2 cups, typically around 4-5 cups rehydrated and cooked. When I make a large pot of soup for our family I would use about half that in beans.
