1 Bay leaf
4 c Water
2 c Peeled, seeded & diced acorn
-- OR butternut squash
1 Carrot, cubed or sliced
1/2 ts Dried thyme
1 ts Dried savory
2 - 4 tb Miso

Drain the beans and place in a pan with bay leaf and water. Cook over medium heat for about 40 minutes, until almost tender, adding a little more water if necessary. Add the squash, carrot, thyme and savory. Continue to simmer for about 20 minutes until everything is tender., stirring occasionally. The stew should have a slightly dry consistency.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the miso. Serve at once.
