Very good indeed! I've been making bean soup for so many years now that it just comes naturally. I have no recipe to follow; I just "wing it" and know exactly what and how much to put in every time. But then I got to browsing this site and came across this recipe... I found it interesting for 2 reasons. First, the canned tomatoes, (I'd never added tomatoes to mine), and second, the Dijon mustard sounded intriguing as well. I've made this a few times now and let me tell you, the tomato and mustard flavors enhance this soup wonderfully. It has more "depth" or a "layering" of flavors. I've made it with Dijon, but also I used dry mustard once with great results. A friend of mine said this was the absolute best bean soup she'd ever tasted. I must agree!!!

This truly is the best bean soup I've ever had. Definitely don't cut back and make a smaller batch, 'cause it's so good you'll want more for later.

I doubled the recipe and tasted it right away, thinking I added far too much Dijon. After cooking the flavors blended perfectly and it is by far the best bean soup I have ever made. Surprisingly, all of the beans are well cooked which is my biggest problem with dry bean recipes. I soaked for about 16 hours and cooked for 6.5hrs. This was very inexpensive for making 24 portions. I'll be making it many times in the future.

Takes a while to make, however it is really tasty. The beans hold together better than expected. I added 2 tablespoons of minced garlic after the first tasting--we're just garlic lovers. Great healthy fare to feed a hungry crowd.

Wow, this is awesome! I made up a big pot with our Easter hambone, and froze it immediately in serving size portions - I finally thawed some out to enjoy... the flavors are really fantastic, very nice hearty soup!

Wait for it! This soup does not taste "right" to me unitl it has been cooking about 7 hours. After that it just gets better and better. I like to substitute about 1/2 cup fresh parsley for the dried. I added 2 med potatoes a couple of times and worked great. Kids love it and never a drop goes to waste.

This is the best bean soup I have ever made! The only thing I did was to add an addition 2 cans of beans because it was hard to find the beans when I stirred it. I did that an hour or so before serving. It was a bit salty so next time I would use low sodium broths.

I made it with a couple of changes since I didn't have all of the ingredients but I don't beieve they changed the recipe significantly. I used all vegetable broth and used fresh parsley, I also added more ham since we had so much left! This was wonderful. I served it once with home made wheat bread and once with corn bread (a savory recipe) and it went with eiher. I froze about a third of it and am looking forward to using it- we had a heat wave so I am waiting for cooler weather.

I tried this recipe for the first time and it was delicious. The only thing that I changed was I omitted the tomatoe juice due to the fact I was cooking it in a 6 quart crock pot and it was already filled to the brim.. As a results this came out like more of a bean stew, which was just perfect with a loaf of bread. My husband, mother and I enjoyed it and I will make this one again. I also gave a portion to a friend who called me and said it was delicious. A keeper

This was better than I expected even though it had good reviews. I was worried it would be too tomato tasting but it wasn't. The flavor was great and it did make a ton. It was a little too spicy for my kids though so next time I will have to alter the spices so that they can enjoy it with us.

I have never been a fan of the old ham and beans soups, but hubby requested it. This was great! I just kept sampling it. We have a young family, but had it polished off in a couple days-none left to freeze!

This was very good. I followed the recipe exactly, but I added about 3/4 cup of corn, just to add some sweetness. Great recipe for leftover Easter ham!

Very good bean soup. Not like traditional bean soup, but good non the less. I made the recipe exactly as written with the changes the submitter made in her review. I just stuck the ham bone in the pot and didn't add any extra ham and it was fine- loads of meat actually. I did have to add a lot of chicken stock to keep it thinned out (2 32oz boxes) during the cooking. I didn't find it needed any extra seasoning after the bone came out. The ham I used was a Kirland spiral cut with out the glaze. This made a lot of soup and we will eat it again this week on a busy night. Thanks for sharing- this will be my go to recipe from now on.
