White Bean Soup à Mexicana

Rinse the beans well and soak them overnight

Cut the bacon into strips

Add the beans, seasonings, and crushed bouillon cube together

Cook the beans in 2 liters of water (use the same water they soaked in) for 1 hour and a half

Clean the leek stalks, cut them into rounds, and add to the beans, cooking for an additional 15 minutes

Add salt to taste and stir in the yogurt

Cut the tomatoes into small cubes and finally sprinkle over the soup

It's always unpleasant when cooking beans to have that much foam that seems like it won't end

If you put a spoonful of butter, margarine, or olive oil in the beans during cooking, you'll get an unexpected result

The foam won't rise as much, your pans will stay cleaner, and so will the surface of your stovetop.
