For a richer flavor, consider using smoked ham hock instead of diced ham and removing the bone before serving. You can also add a splash of apple cider vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice at the end for brightness. Adjust the amount of water in the second addition based on your desired soup consistency. If you prefer a thicker soup, use less water; for a thinner soup, use more. To avoid mushy beans, don't add salt until the beans are mostly cooked.
