INSTRUCTIONS
In a large saucepan, over medium heat, combine the beans and 6 cups of the chicken stock. Season with pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered for about 2 hours, or until tender. Remove from the heat. Using a hand held blender or food processor, puree until smooth. Whisk in the water and cream to desired consistency. Cool the soup completely and refrigerate until chilled. In a saute pan, over medium heat, render the pancetta until crispy, about 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, drain, reserving fat for later use and cool. In a mixing bowl, add the tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the crispy pancetta, red onions, basil, and croutons. Season with a drizzle of the olive oil, salt and pepper. Remove the soup from the refrigerator and whisk until smooth. Add a little water if needed. To serve, ladle the soup into individual bowls. Garnish each soup with the relish. This recipe yields 8 to 10 servings. Comments: The original recipe title as listed is "Cold Puree Of White Bean Soup With A Crispy Pancetta And Creole Tomato Relish".
