Notes: So that's the recipe, but I don't work that hard. I throw it ALL in the pot, bring it to a boil, and let low boil for 90 minutes, stirring every so often. I also leave the ham bone in the pot, and throw it away when the soup is gone. (It continues to flavor the soup). That way, all of those flavors are there for the entire time--not just the last hour or so.
I also make corn muffins to serve with this. Super easy, and they seem to go well with it.
