You shouldn’t make this soup in a hurry! The secret is to let it simmer and take its time on low heat, until the peas have softened beautifully and the meat is literally falling off the ham bone. Add some homemade biscuits on the side and you’ll be in food heaven! To me this brings back so many memories that just the aromas lingering in the kitchen will make me smile. Did you used to have split pea soup as a kid? We would love to hear about it in the comments below!

Some things you just have to copy paste or go old fashioned and write it down I’m afraid.

would love the recipe also.
I made this tonight. The recipe calls for too much water. Make it 1 1/2 quarts instead of 2 1/2 qts. —–OR double the peas!

The picture appears that potatoes are also included, but I don’t see them in the ingredients list. Does this soup include potatoes, and are they added at the same time as the carrots and (optional) celery, or do they go in either before or after?
You may add any type of vegetables that you want to this soup.
I always add potatoes to my pea soup. Wondering though, why just soak the peas, then discard the water and start again. I have always just cooked them for several hours until done. Also, I use a hand blender to thoroughly mash the peas so there are no solid looking ones. People love it.
I grew up eating Split Pea Soup. My grandmother made it all the time. Just a few differences, no Thyme, no potatoes. Carrots,onions, Accent, salt, pepper, ham bone or ham seasoning. A ham bone is the best. Use the amount of water suggested on the packet, remember you can always add more water during the cooking process. After the soup is cooked a put a dollop of Olive oil, stir, let sit until ready to serve. We also served it over pasta, which is optional (not spaghetti, but a small elbow.
What have you got against putting the name off the recipes with the recipes? The last dozen or so recipes I’ve looked at on this site have not had a name.
Have you ever heard the song, “A Horse With No Name”? It’s kinda like that…a mystery. Good day to you, Philip 🙂
