    Step 7:

  • Soak the beans ahead of time — the night before is best. Put a pot with 3 cups of water on the stove, add salt, and bring it to a boil. Add the butter to a skillet and let it heat up. Add the onion and sauté until it takes on a little color. Add the soaked beans to the boiling water, return it to a boil, and cook for 20-25 minutes. Then add the diced potatoes and carrots to the beans. Keep cooking for another 35-40 minutes; the beans should be tender by then. In a second pot, bring some salted water to a boil and drop in the tomatoes for 30 seconds. Scoop them out and let them cool, then peel and seed them easily. Cut the tomato flesh into small pieces and add it to the pot with the beans. Add the peas, corn, and spinach as well. Let the soup simmer for another 5-10 minutes, then season with salt and pepper. Your summer minestrone is ready — just ladle it into bowls, sprinkle with fresh herbs, and finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
