How to make bean soup:

Wash all beans thoroughly; drain. Place in a 4-quart kettle with 5 cups of water. Bring to a rapid boil; boil 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 1 hour.

Meanwhile, place ham bone and 3 quarts of water in an 8-quart soup kettle; simmer for 1 hour. Drain beans and add to the ham stock; add remaining ingredients.

Simmer for 2 to 3 hours or until beans are tender. Discard bone. Add additional water, if desired. Yields about 5 1/2 quarts.
