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.
8th Step
Pour bowls with the White Bean and Ham Hock Soup. For an optional splash of color and freshness, garnish with chopped fresh parsley. For a hearty, filling supper that will warm you from the inside out, serve this warming soup with crusty bread or a side salad
