Potato, Leek, and Ham Soup
This recipe features our hickory-smoked pastured ham (free of nitrites, MSG, and preservatives) ~ bringing incredible flavor to this classically comforting soup!

Ingredients

  • Petite Boneless Ham
  • 2-4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
  • 2 leeks, lighter sections halved down the middle and sliced thinly
  • 5-8 potatoes, diced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tsp dried sage or desired amount of fresh
  • 4 or more cups stock
  • 1 cup coconut milk or other
  • 2-3 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt & pepper

Directions

1 - In a large pot, sauté leeks and celery in a little coconut oil, butter, or water until softened.

2 - Add stock, potatoes, herbs, and bay leaf.  Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer until potatoes are tender, then remove from heat. Discard bay leaf.

3 - Ladle soup into a blender to purée or partially purée. An immersion blender may also be used. Once you have the texture to your liking, return pot to stove and add the remaining ingredients: chopped pieces of ham, coconut milk (or other), parsley, salt and pepper. Warm just until desired heat, without boiling. If soup is too thick, add a little water.

4 - Enjoy!

*Note: you may adjust the number of potatoes to your liking. We usually add a few more, depending on the size of the potatoes, etc. 

**If you don't have ham on hand, try using our bacon, bacon pieces, Canadian bacon, sausage, chicken, or leftover pork roast chopped into pieces!
