PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH HAM AND STRING BEANS

Steps:

• Place ham in a large pot with lid, cover with water, and bring to boil. Reduce to simmer and cook 1-1/2 to 2 hours to get nicely tender ham and a rich broth. Ham hocks may take longer to cook to fall-apart tender, but that is the stage you want them at.

• Taste broth. You want a nice rich broth, if necessary, add some ham bouillon to enrich to your taste.
