15ozcans of white beanscannelini, small white, butter, etc.
2cupsturkey or chicken broth
2Tbssherry
croutons
grated Parmesana spoonful per bowl
Instructions
Make the croutons if you need to. Just cut a few slices of French or Italian bread into 1/2 inch cubes, toss with some olive oil, salt and seasonings, then bake at 450 F for 5 minutes or so. (Watch them!)
Heat the oil in your dutch oven or soup pot, and cook the onions and garlic about 5 minutes, stirring, until softened. Add the beans and broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes.
Use an immersion blender to blend the beans, leaving as chunky as you'd like.
Stir in the sherry and basil (I used dried but I do think fresh would be better).
Put a servings worth in a bowl, add a bit of grated Parmesan, and a few croutons.
