Rachian bean soup

As the majority of the Rachian bean meals, it's the local ham that makes the bean soup taste so special. Rachian ham is the pride of the Georgian ham, jamon, prosciutto or salted meat and can’t stop wondering why isn’t it sold everywhere in ordinary supermarkets? This particular type of ham comes from the village Sadmeli.

 Now, if you wonder why have I chosen this recipe and what is so extraordinary about it? I will tell. Here is why: I’ve tried it once at Ambrolauri local diner and have instantly realized that life would be so dull without it. To cut it short, I’ve spent about 2 hours on asking and praying to the cook for its recipe and finally I got it. I want you to try it and enjoy this jewel of Ambrolauri.
