It's not a question of where he grips it!
It's a simple question of weight ratios!

A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut.

SPANISH BEAN SOUP

1/2 lb. dried garbanzo beans
10 c. water
1 tbsp. salt
1 beef bone
1 ham bone
2 qts. water
1/4 lb. salt pork, chopped fine
Pinch of paprika
1 tbsp. shortening
1 chopped onion
1 lb. potatoes, peeled and quartered
Pinch of saffron
1 chorizo Spanish sausage, cut in thin slices

In large pot, place beans in salted water to soak overnight. Next day,
drain water and place beans, beef, and ham bones and 2 quarts of water
in a large pot. Place over low heat and simmer for 45 minutes. Fry the
chopped salt pork; add paprika and onion, adding the shortening if
needed and cook until the onion is tender. Add to beans, then add
potatoes.

Toast saffron on the cover of a casserole or in the oven and mash
before measuring. Mix with a little hot stock from the pot and add to
soup. Taste and season with salt and pepper. In about 15 minutes when
potatoes are done, put chorizo slices in soup and serve hot. Serves 4.

restaurants but when I googled it, I got navy beans, red beans, black
beans--all kinds of bean soup recipes BUT a basic Spanish Bean! Thanks! P
