# Soak the pork with the beans for 24 hours beforehand, to remove some of the salt.
# Cook the meat in fresh water with onion and garlic, for about 1 and half hours, until the skin is tender.
# Remove the onion and garlic and taste the stock to see if more salt should be added.
# If it is too salty, throw away some of the liquid and dilute with more water.
# Add the beans and other vegetables and simmer until they are cooked (about 1 and half hours more).
# If the soup is very greasy, let it cool down and skim the fat from the surface.

# Pour into the soup and bring to the boil.
# To serve cut the meat into pieces, put a piece in each soup plate and pour the soup over.
