| 1. In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the bay leaves and minced garlic and reduce heat to a medium boil. Uncovered, reduce the liquid to 8 Cups (one half original volume). This will take between 1-2 hours. | 2. Remove the bay leaves and take the broth off the heat. Allow the broth to cool. | 3. Add the dried, great northern beans to the broth, cover, and refrigerate overnight (or at least 8 hours). | 4. Once the beans have re-hydrated, place the beans and the broth back in the pot and bring to a low boil or simmer. Cover and cook for 45 minutes to an hour. | 5. Remove the stems and central stalk from the kale leaves. Finely chop the kale. Add to the simmering broth along with the whole garlic cloves and the whipping cream.
