Ham and Chickpea Soup

A small amount of ham—in the form of a smoked hock—goes a long way in this soup. You won’t get a lot of meat off that bone; its major contribution is saltiness, smokiness, and a silky, rich texture. If you don’t have or can’t find a ham hock, use a few ounces of slab bacon instead.
