CANADIAN /GERMAN HAM OR FARMER SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Put ham bone or other meat into a very large stock pot and add water to within 2 inches of the top of the pot. Simmer for 40 minutes.
• As the meat simmers add the onion, and the bay leaves and peppercorns in a teaball or cheesecloth bag, or just loose.
• Remove ham bone from the pot to a large bowl and let cool until you can handle it, then cut off and dice the meat.
• Add meat back into the pot and the potatoes and carrots. Boil gently for 15 minutes.
• Add beans and savoury, if using, and simmer until all vegetables are done.
• Check for salt, but ham and farmer sausage are salty meats so salt isn't usually needed.
• Freeze what's left.
• Note: I use a bit more potatoes than carrots, and even less beans.

GERMAN BEAN AND SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Wash and sort Lima beans. Put in a large pot with water and soak overnight or use the quick method and boil the beans in the water for 30 minutes, cover and let sit in the hot water for an hour and then proceed as the recipe states.
• 2. Add the soup base and ham hock and cook for 25 minutes.
• 3. Add the thyme, onions, carrots, celery, potatoes and green beans and cook until veggies are done.
• 4. Remove the meat from the ham hock and return it to the soup along with the sliced kielbasa and cook another 10 minutes to heat through.
