Split pea soup is the traditional use for a ham bone in my family. In fact, 
I had a ham over the holidays, and the ham is gone and the soup is already 
gone, too, except one serving that I put in the freezer. I always try to put 
at least one serving of any soup in the freezer so I can satiate my soup 
cravings betwen pots of soup (I haven't been eating enough cuts of meat with 
bones lately to make soup as often as I like, and long ago used all my 
frozen stock).
