How to cook deliciously - Ham Bone and Bean Soup

1 . Stage

Place bean mix into a large bowl and cover with several inches of water; soak for at least 24 hours. Drain completely.

2 . Stage

Bring chicken stock to a boil in a pot large enough to hold the beans and, eventually, the ham bone. When boiling, add soaked beans. Reduce the heat and simmer until tender, about 1 hour.

3 . Stage

Return stock and beans to a boil. Add ham bone, onion, carrots, celery, garlic, and bay leaves. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until vegetables are soft, about 1 hour. Add chopped ham, liquid smoke, and mustard powder. Stir and let simmer until flavors blend, about 30 more minutes.

4 . Stage

Remove ham bone from the soup. Season with salt and pepper before serving.
