5th Step
After soaking, rinse and drain the beans. Together with the shredded ham hock flesh, add them to the saucepan. Make sure the beans are well submerged before adding the chicken or veggie broth.
6th Step
Add salt, pepper, bay leaves, and dried thyme to the saucepan. Mix the seasonings together well. Afterward, gently bring the soup to a boil before lowering the heat. For approximately two hours, or until the beans are cooked, simmer the mixture covered.
7th Step
Check the soup often, and if extra broth is required to maintain the correct consistency, add it. Remove and discard the bay leaves before serving.
Perfume your home with the oven: a small amount goes a long way to an irresistible aroma.
