For a richer flavor, consider using smoked ham hock in addition to or in place of the ham steak. Remove the hock before serving. If you prefer a crispier green bean, add them during the last 10 minutes of cooking. A bay leaf added during simmering will impart a subtle aromatic note to the dish. Remember to remove it before serving. This dish is even better the next day! The flavors meld beautifully overnight.
