Rinse the beans, cover with water, and let soak for several hours or overnight.
Discard the water and place in saucepan with 3-1/2 cups of water and seaweed.
Bring to a boil, cover and then simmer for 1-1/2 hours over very low heat until tender.
Chop vegetables and sauté in olive oil until slightly soft.
Add vegetables, orange zest and savory to beans.
Simmer over low heat for 15 minutes or until the beans are soft.
Remove from heat and stir in miso. Add water to preferred consistency, or puree in a blender.
Serve hot with fresh lemon juice and a garnish of parsley. Serves six as a meal.
