Add a photoFrom the Senate Dinning hall, Washington D. C. This has always been my favorite bean soup and has served me very well every time I offer it either for a family gathering or I have served it to up to 300 diners over and over again.

- 1-1/4 pounds smoked ham shank or smoked neckbones

- 1 lg. onion, chopped
- 3 med, carrots, diced fine or shredded
- 2 stalks celery, diced fine
- 1/2 tablespoon garlic diced fine
- salt and pepper to taste Note, do not add salt until beans are tender and just before serving.

-    overnight. Dispose of soaking water. In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine water and chicken base, the ham  shank and simmer for about 45 minutes.
