  • (1 ) vegetable bouillon cube
  • (2 ) black garlic clove
  • 130 g (½ cup) butter beans, drained, rinsed
  • (¼ teaspoon) tamari
  • (1 teaspoon) tahini [or sesame seeds]

Directions

  1. Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid. 
  2. Run the Hot Soup Program or start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed.  Blend for 5 minutes 45 seconds.

Chef's Notes

  • If you do not have black garlic, substitute with regular garlic cloves. For more intense flavor, adjust the amounts of tamari, tahini, and pepper. Tamari and tahini add saltiness to the soup so do not add any salt; taste it before adding.
  • Try pouring this soup over roasted, chopped mushrooms for additional texture. Garnish with fresh herbs, sliced scallions or chives, or a dollop of Cashew Cream.
