I love this soup. Made it a couple of times from your book. Thanks for the reminder from your newsletter! I use Rancho Beans and Alexandra Stafford's insta pot method which has been full proof for in terms of the beans and yielding a lovely broth. I have the method printed and saved with my insta pot!! Today I will use cranberry beans.

Can you tell me if the bread machine book recipes work without a bread machine? I don’t have one.

Hi Karen - I wrote this one specifically for bread machines, so all the recipes assume you have one. If you've mixed, kneaded, proofed dough before and know how to do it by hand, you can certainly use the recipes that way, but I haven't built those instructions into the recipe. It's definitely a new type of cookbook for me!
