Use large dry lima beans for this soup.
2 cups dry lima beans
1/2 pound bulk sausage meat (or remove casings from link sausage)
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 tablespoons flour
4 potatoes, peeled and sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
Soak beans overnight. (Drain or not, as you prefer.) Simmer in water to cover, 1-1/2 hours, covered. As beans cook, fry sausage in skillet. Remove meat with slotted spoon and set aside. Leave 1 tablespoon fat in pan. Saut
