  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1              pound  dry lima beans
  4               cups  water
  5                     carrots -- chopped
  1                     leek -- bulb onlly, chopped
  2        tablespoons  minced shallots
  2             stalks  celery -- chopped
  4              cubes  vegetable bouillon
  8               cups  water
  2        tablespoons  olive oil

1.  Bring 4 cups of water to a boil.  Add dry lima beans, and boil for 2 to 3 minutes.  Remove from heat, and allow the beans to sit, covered for 1 to 2 hours to soften.  Drain and rinse until water runs clear, discarding bean water.

2.  In a soup pot, saute vegetables in olive oil until onions and celery are translucent.  Add lima beans, and saute for another 2 to 3 minutes.

3.  In the meantime, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.  Add the vegetable bouillon to the boiling water, and stir until dissolved.  Add broth to the sauteed vegetables and beans.  Add remaining water, and allow soup to simmer over a low flame for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.  Serve steaming hot.

Description:
  ""This wonderful vegetable and lima bean soup lives up to its name.  You must allow 1 1/2 hours of simmer time, and the lima beans must be soaked for two hours prior to cooking, but the results are well worth the time.""
