We always have those left over ham bones and I hate not to put them to good use. This is a great way to make use of them.

celery,

dried parsley, crushed

bay leaf

Combine all ingredients in a large dutch oven.

Cover and store in refrigerator or freeze for future use.

I also make my own ham broth. Only I just simmer water and ham bone for two to three hours, then refrigerate and skim the fat off. I just wanted to add that ham broth makes the best gravy in the world for biscuits and gravy! For all you gravy makers out there this tip is for you! Use bacon grease to saute flour in. Then mix half milk and half ham broth for the liquid. Add salt and lots of black pepper. I usually use powdered milk and make it stronger than called for. Add more or less flour, or liquid, as needed until desired consistancy.  Hope this helps someone...
