[email protected]This soup was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less ham hock next time. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

[email protected]Love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. The ham hock gives the soup such a rich flavor. I usually serve it with a side of crusty bread.
