"DH is Mennonite and loves his soups! This is the one I make from the first picking of beans or fresh from the farmer's market. To make this soup with farmer sausage, cook peeled and chopped sausage along with vegetables for an hour. If you can’t get summer savory, use a sprinkle of thyme. And one more thing...you can use chicken, vegetable or beef broth instead of water...adds more flavour."
