If you like a hearty bowl of ham and beans, you’ll like this ham and bean soup with a southern twist.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
Lorna Sass is a highly acclaimed expert on pressure cookers. Her \u00a0cookbook Cooking Under Pressure is the first pressure cooker cookbook I bought. This recipe is adapted for the electric pressure cooker from Cooking Under Pressure.<\/p>\n

My mom cooked ham and beans fairly often growing up. This southern style ham and beans substitutes black-eyed peas and okra. Black-eyed peas cook in only 10 minutes in the pressure cooker and the okra thickens the soup without using any additional thickeners.<\/p>\n
It’s a quick, inexpensive meal. If you’re having ham for Easter, save your ham bone to make the soup.<\/p>\n
