I just tasted my bean soup in the crockpot and it is tasting salty. I put in TWO ham hocks instead of the usual ONE. And I used left over "black forest" deli ham. Any ideas? It isn't REALLY salty, but more than I like. TIA His Grace From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another. Jn 1:16

Take some of the liquid out and add more water. Reach for the moon, even if you miss, you will land among the stars.

However, next time before you make your dish I suggest preboiling those ham hocks first. Takes a whole lot of salt out before you add to your beans. There is no spoon... Yep, potatoes are what I use too. You can cut them up in bite sized pieces and leave them in and eat with the beans or throw them in whole and then fish them out and discard or use for something else.
