How to make minestrone soup:

Bring 1-quart water to boil. Add beans and boil rapidly for 1 minute. Remove pan from heat and cover. Let beans stand for 1 hour. Saute garlic, celery, onions and carrots for a few minutes, stirring well. Add tomatoes, broth, salt, pepper, bay leaf and beans. Heat until soup boils. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour or until beans are tender. If soup is being served immediately, stir in cabbage, zucchini and macaroni.
