Hame Made Soup | Scottish Ham hough & Lentil soup :)

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

Wee Jasper’s photobomb was so cute! (And cheeky!)

[@RICDirector]

He loves ham because he is one....

[@tonyefc8423]

I cooked this recipe. I never thought anybody could better my late Mums lentil and ham soup, but I was wrong. This is sensational!

[@armeyf]

Thank you for your videos! Recently, I've discovered I am over 50% of Scottish heritage. Now everything Scottish is fascinating!

[@KristaLeigh.PhotographyUK]

I made this today, but I ditched the swede and put in a can of chickpeas. Absolutely delicious! Thank you so much for sharing this!

[@traceyoneill8627]

Making a pot of hame made soup tomorrow .. I always use sautéed leeks instead of onion and grated carrot as well as chunks..I love it so thick that it'll "stick tae yer ribs" as my family always says 😆.

[@nicola3540]

As a Scot who’s lived a long way from home for many years now, I just love you’re videos. They are often recipes for something I’d completely forgotten about yet is instantly so familiar, like this lentil soup. It’s exactly like the soup my mum used to make on a regular basis, the only difference being she would add a can of whole tomatoes near the end of cooking…. My ham hock broth has just now come to a simmer on the stove, and I can hardly wait!

[@sunshining_inthe_hebrides4030]

I've just taken a Ham Hough out of the freezer ! So this is tomorrow's tea in the Sunny outer Hebrides tomorrow xx

[@DrBrunoRecipes]

Lovely soup for the upcoming winter👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻

[@WagonPilotAdventures]

Seeing Jasper up there made my day. I lost my Nutmeg to cancer last week and she was always trying to see what I was cooking. Great Fall soup! Cheers!

[@Wolfman519]

My Scottish grandmother used to make this same recipe, but she would grate the carrots and she would finish the soup with a half cup of Ketchup. It adds a pleasant sweet and sour type of taste

[@meatwad1]

I made this yesterday and made a few tweaks. I didn't have fresh parsley, so I used half a cup of dried parsley. I used 2 smoked pork neck bones and about a third of a ham steak. And I added 1/4 cup of lemon juice. The results are delicious. This will be one of my regular meals. Thank you for this wonderful recipe. Regards from America.

[@WhatsForTea]

Good stuff! :) x

[@ninaelsbethgustavsen2131]

Up to the moment when you added onion, I thought you'd nicked my recipe ! 😄🥣 But I use leek. And yellow peas. (The dried ones wich need to soak over night). It's a Norwegian/Swedish lifesaver during winter... Scandi tip ; stir a teaspoon of (sweet grainy) mustard into each serving ! 👌 Stay safe and well. Love from Norway 💖

[@8catmom]

I love lentil soup, I will make it mine soon

[@richclasper8272]

I never realised the Scottish spelling for Hock is “Hough”! You learn something new everyday. I adore Bacon and Lentil soup. I will definitely be giving this a go, now Autumn is upon us.

[@isyt1]

Yeah we pronounce it like Loch too, like you’re clearing your throat at the end bit lol. Don’t think Cheryl did though actually. There’s probably a technical name for that throat clearing sound but I don’t know it! I think the Dutch do it too for some words

[@klimtkahlo]

@@isyt1 guttural sound maybe?

[@TechBearSeattle]

@@isyt1 - It is a voiceless velar fricative.

@@TechBearSeattle Well now we know!! I've been using it since I learnt to make noises and it never occured to me that this sound had a name. I suppose a 𝑣𝑜𝑖𝑐𝑒𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑟 𝑓𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 is as good a name as any. All I need to do now is casually slip that into a conversation.😁👍

[@wilfbentley6738]

My Mom used to make a variant of this with split peas . Mom would use the bone left over from a roast of ham, especially if there was a good amount of meat left on the bone. This was my favourite soup. Chopped celery goes well in this, including the leaves. We often had roasts with a bone in or bones to be left over (ham, beef, chicken, turkey) , so soup could be made afterwards. Ham bones became split pea soup, beef bones became beef-barley soup, poultry bones became chicken/turkey-vegetable soup. I have in turn made all of these for my kids.

[@meatwad1]

I make all kinds of bean and ham soups--split pea, bean and ham using great northern beans and so on. I use smoked pork neck bones, smoked ham hocks or shanks or a third or a half of a ham steak or any combination of these. Any type of smoked pork will do. I buy whichever is least expensive at the particular store I'm at. Sometimes the store won't have smoked neck bones or ham hocks and I'll have to buy fresh neck bones or hocks. I always make sure I have some smoked pork in my freezer, so when I have a piece of pork that isn't smoked, I'll compensate by putting a few drops of liquid smoke on the meat or half a teaspoon of smoked paprika and put a piece of smoked pork in the pot. I also buy packs of beef bones and keep them in the freezer. They're good for things like the Russian dish known as shchi or Polish rosol.

[@Beruthiel45]

Oh wow, such memories you've given me. 🤗 My Mam used to make this when I was a bairn, 60 years ago, and we loved it on a dark winter night, with doughy baps to dip, just scrumptious. And yes, it only gets better the next day. 😊 Thank you for sharing your recipe, I'm going to have to make this myself soon once the nights really draw in, and think of days gone by. 💞

[@lgfrades]

Love this video with Jasper! Cutest thing ever! This soup looks wonderful although your ham hocks are much more gorgeous than ours. I’ll get my smoked ham hock and make it soon, thank you, Cheryl 💖

[@Getpojke]

Braw! I was sort've weaned on soup. Growing up we'd have it at least at two meals a day, and the pot of soup got better as the days went on. I recently bought myself one of those Instant Pots & its sent me off on a soup making rampage, making all sorts of different soups. Though I still think a pot of well made Scots Broth/Hame Made Soup is pretty hard to beat. As well as being really comforting & "stick tae yer ribs" its one of the best & most economical ways to feed yourself & family. My favourite bits in the soup have always been the pearl barley & the leek pinwheels. 🥣😋 Great video, always enjoy them, hope you & yours have a grand weekend.

[@jjimywoods1363]

@goat boy that sounds great lad. If you do set up a channel or recipe guide , count me in

Good morning x oh thank you ❤ love a drop of soup, this weather, screaming 😱 make soup lol. ❤️

Aww my mother used to make this when we where young and with Scottish bread also marrow bone soup nice memories

[@alanalynk8067]

That looks delicious! I make soup all year long but I especially love it in the winter. It gives such a feeling of coziness, especially if it’s snowing 😊

[@lesleyphillips931]

Agree. We sometimes have snow and ice in the far south east of Spain and we need this kind of internal heating. Thank you Cheryl.

[@dremawhitman5887]

I always wanted to try lentils, I will give this a try, I love homemade soup.

[@sheba6421]

It will be cool enough for soup within the next month here in Virginia. I'll try this recipe thank you. It looks like Jasper wants a nibble.

[@valgalloway6914]

My Mum's favourite home made soup - in fact her speciality. I remember being in Liverpool city centre when Mum was about 70. In a cafe, probably for coffee and toast, she spotted this soup on the menu. Of course she had to have it but what a disappointment! "There's no 'am in this, girl" she murmured to me. You can't beat home made.

[@stephanieparker8759]

Love your accent and beautiful country. Soup looks wonderful. I'm going to try this recipe now. From Houston,Tx.

[@helensadeik400]

Love this recipe I’m a Scot and my mum always made it. I’ve made it it’s the best. Cheap meal and yummy. Thankyou I miss mum and this is one of great soups. She used bacon bones. Thankyou ❤❤

[@-greentoad]

Loved seeing Jasper coming over because he smelled the ham. He wants his too. Lol. Soup looked fantastic.

[@TheAuntieBa]

You can ramble at me ANY day! I not only like your recipes, I like to listen to what you say. ‘Frinstance, how Jasper loves ham…I could tell 😉. This soup sounds like a winner. I love lentils; used to sprout them, crispy and flavorful. Just setting up to make twelve days of supplements and meds so I can coast a bit, maybe work on my cactuses. My big green amaryllis has two big blooms, and it’s not even near the right season for it - what a treat! Hope you’re all well and enjoying life in gorgeous northern Scotland! ❤️

[@sandracandlish7263]

Made this soup last night only used the hock stock but will try with added cubes. It was so nice.

[@Scottygirlnz]

Another dish I make often -- clearly passed down from my Scottish grandmother again. We love our home made soups.

[@stevenwhite5866]

Epic. I’m a Scot but located in Spain. Happy to give a customer and expert review if u wang a well packed tupper over my way!!!!

[@LindaC616]

[@peterostermiller3576]

We have a lot of different types of lentils and we are always on the lookout for a nice lentil recipe. Nice looking recipe. Will have to try.

[@DonutDocP]

Looks absolutely delicious! I'm one that eats soup year round, but with the weather changing, this is definitely right up my alley.

[@LeClaw]

anyone disliking this video clearly is a pure heid-the-baw. I love coming back to this channel to watch recipes. Sometimes it also inspires me to do my own cooking as well 😀

[@helenmcgowan7685]

With the exception of no oil, leak instead of onion & additional ham stock cube, this is similar to my soup. Your wee Mammy's recipe has my 'mouth watering', as we Scots say! Will give this a wee go, as I'm sure it will be lovely! Will even try it, using the oil, just to see. Loved it! Helen

[@kc3654]

Aww my dad (85) said it needs to be thicker and broken down over night ... we then add Worcestershire sauce to our bowl , white pepper and chunks of butted bread on the side 😻 .. thanks for reminding us of this childhood favourite.. going to get dad to make it 💕

[@lindaj5492]

Love this type of soup; my mum & grandmas made it all the time. They used to add a chopped leek instead of onion, and split peas for texture & bulk as well as the red lentils; sometimes butter beans if available (they break right down and make the soup really creamy). Pearl barley is another option; thickens the soup up & makes it even more filling. You could feed a big family for pennies if you got a ham bone from the butcher after he’d carved the meat off it 😋

[@mariehudson5277]

Love home made soup we grate our carrots and turnips instead of chopping x

[@deidrecruickshank7975]

The soup looks delectable! I'm making it this weekend. I do hope Jasper got some ham. One thing I thought interesting is the way you spell though over there. Here in NZ we spell it hock. You're right you can't beat a good ham hock!

[@kc3654]

We call it hock too 😄 its just in Scotland said this way. By the way definitely use dry red/green split lentils and use the water from the ham hock stock of a hock you have cooked yourself instead of precooked ham it really is what makes this 🍲 soup ❤️ ..

[@louisechapman4009]

Glad to see Jasper safely home with you

[@davidcramb5793]

That's what Ootsiders were made for 😋. My Mum used to put some finely grated carrots in it, along with the big chunks, and they dissolved and thickened up her soup.

[@KevinLindsayJr]

I currently have the hough in the pot simmering, it's my first time making this soup as I usually make tattie and leek or chicken rice Thank you so much for this recipie. My house smells like my dearly missed Granny's house on a Sunday, and it is bringing back so many memories of family Sundays 💖 x

Bought a ham Hough today and veg going to make this soup next week love name made lentil soup Linda.

[@lynnemoon3318]

We used to call these hame shanks we used to soak it overnight in cold water then boil it with lentils and the veg made lovely soup

[@jennyprorock]

Looks excellent as usual. I used to make a German lentil soup all the time that was nearly identical to this. It just had a laid of American bacon in it and green lentils and a few Bay leaves. The rest is the exact same. Minus the turnips. You're absolutely right, it's so much better the next day. Thanks for reminding me about this delicious, hearty soup. Squish Jasoer for me 🤗

Jasper is persistent about that Ham! Mine can't resist chicken. This soup looks really really good even though I'm not a huge lentil fan, I think the red one looks tastier for so reason. I'll just have to try it and see!

[@cathyburns750]

That soup looks lovely and healthy, Cheryl! Can't wait to make it! It's still quite warm outside here in Ohio, USA but as soon as the weather turns I'll be preparing this recipe. Thanks so much again for all you do, sharing your recipes of delightful goodies with us! Hugs and blessings!

[@deborahrussell1609]

I make this alot but I've never used potatoes..I will try that recipe..thank you cheryl n jasper..

[@lfcmonkeyyyman6229]

Great recipe, but I am guessing it was rather salty.. the ham hock / hough is usually salty, the knorr ham stock cubes are salty, and you added quite a lot of salt to the veggies! The soup did look delicious, and for me, some dumplings would go well with it!! Lovely jubbly!!

[@WhatsForTea]

Hiya :) It actually wasn't overly salty surprisingly...you could adjust the salt to your own liking though! Thank you for watching x

[@Pixiesnix]

Ham houghs (hocks) are commonly used the in the American South to flavor soups, beans, and greens. We've had many winter meals comprised of pinto beans flavored with ham hocks, served with cornbread. Yum yum!

Trying this now or an approximation, so fingers crossed. Thanks Cheryl😊

[@adrianguynn5807]

Looks delicious! Honestly I'm not sure I've ever seen a Ham flavored stock cube in the states? I know I've never bought any, just beef, chicken and veg. I'll have to investigate.

[@staceyn2541]

I just realised our favorite soup in my house is essentially a very watery cottage pie. Ground beef, onions, potatoes, stock, lots of water, and simmer until the potatoes get rounded edges. Uses about ¼ lb of meat for 3 lbs of potatoes. Huh. Soups are so versatile! It never had a name before. Going to be Cottage Soup from now on!

[@carolcurtis1573]

Great recipe , loving Jasper he’s a handsome boy 🥰 cats are the boss 👏

[@ChoochooseU]

It’s very interesting to see how many foods are similar to what I’ve been raised on in the South. (wee north of Nashville Tennessee USA in the country) Ham hock n beans was a staple- great white northern beans, pinto beans mostly. But we use that hock also for seasoning other foods like turnip greens, green beans, etc... Your food always looks so delicious 🤤

[@catholicfaithofmine2664]

I lot of Scottish people settled in the South and brought these recipes with them.

[@ChoochooseU]

@@catholicfaithofmine2664 my family was one of 5 who built the oldest Catholic Church in Tennessee. We are German, and I know the details down to the boat we came over on, The Patience 😊But I do have the other side of my family who are very much Scottish. I suppose it’s from both the influences eh?
