Ham And Bean Soup Recipe

	Keeperrox / All my dishes 2 years ago This is a great weekday recipe for cold, winter nights. Start before you go to bed with the crock pot set to "high" and turn to "low" before you leave for work the next morning. I serve it with garlic crostini, topped with parmesan or fresh mozzarella....

I've often had store-bought ham-and-bean soup, but homemade will be so much better! You don't need to soak the beans at all, right?

keeperrox 1 year, 11 months ago said:
Nope, not at all. Because you cook on high and then on low for a total of about 16 hours, soaking is not needed. Some will claim that soaking and changing the water will eliminate some of the adverse digestive effects beans have on some people, but I can't really tell the difference.

I have a bone from a spiral ham... with scraps.. I can use that.. right?

Sure! You can pretty much use anything that's going to give it a flavor, and a bone will work well.

Next time I make this, I want to use a chunk of smoked ham instead of the hocks....( trying to control my hubbies high cholesterol,by lower the fats in his diet) And half the amount of lemon juice, it was too tart for him.
