- Mix water and cornstarch in a small bowl and add slowly to the soup. Mix well and cook until soup is about the consistency of heavy cream or desired thickness; it should not be too thick. Cook for 2 to 3 more minutes before serving.

SMOKED HAM HOCK AND CABBAGE SOUP
Got this recipe from an Amish neighbor years ago, but she doesn't remember where she got it. I have had this at the Hoss's steakhouse chain as an appetizer or with a big salad.This is more about the broth than the ham or cabbage. Be careful of the salt as some ham hocks can be very salty, but on the plus side they are available at any grocery store.

Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: Green cabbage is the most commonly used cabbage for ham and cabbage soup, but you can also use red cabbage or savoy cabbage. Just be sure to chop it thinly so that it cooks evenly.
- Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to cabbage, you can also add other vegetables to your soup, such as carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and turnips. This will give your soup more flavor and nutrition.
- Use a good quality ham: The ham is the star of the show in this soup, so it's important to use a good quality ham. Look for a ham that is smoked and fully cooked. You can use either a bone-in or boneless ham, but bone-in ham will give your soup more flavor.
- Season your soup well: Ham and cabbage soup is a simple soup, but it's important to season it well. Be sure to add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Let your soup simmer: The longer you simmer your soup, the more flavorful it will be. Simmer your soup for at least 30 minutes, or up to an hour.
