VEGAN SPLIT PEA SOUP I
This makes a very thick vegetarian split pea soup. To make it thinner, reduce the amount of split peas or add more water. Depending on the density of split peas, it may take a while for the vegetables and peas to soften, but you can't really overcook this soup; just stir occasionally, and add water if it gets too dry. Seasonings can be altered to taste. Tastes even better reheated.

CREAMY VEGAN SPLIT PEA SOUP
To me, this soup is ultimate cold-weather comfort food. The tahini and Bragg's add amazing depth of flavor. It makes a big batch and freezes wonderfully. Be sure to serve with a generous stack of wholewheat bread, and a green salad if you like.

- Add the vegetables and simmer another 30-45 minutes, until the peas are very soft (depends on the age of the peas).
- Meanwhile, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of water with the tahini and the remaining engredients. If your tahini is quite thick, do this in the food processor or blender, much easier. Stir the tahini mixture into the soup and serve.
