Can I use raw pork hocks in my soup?
I’m currently snowed in and want to make bean soup, but I mistakenly bought raw pork hocks instead of smoked ham hocks. Can I still use them? I’m considering just tossing everything into the crock pot for 8 hours. Will it still come out tasty?
Yes, you can definitely use raw pork hocks in your bean soup! Using raw pork hocks will give your soup a delicious flavor and a nice richness as they cook down. Cooking them in the crock pot for 8 hours sounds like a great plan. Just make sure to season your soup well, as the raw hocks will need some time to impart their flavor. You might want to sauté some onions, garlic, and other veggies before adding them to the crock pot for extra depth. Enjoy your soup, and stay warm!
