Keep this on hand when you go out jogging or exorcising. Makes a great rib-sticking soup. I sometimes vary the meat ingredients- in the pic posted, I used little smokies and a ham hock, same amounts.

Time 1h50m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (1 lb) package split peas
2 quarts water
1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon leaf thyme, crumbled
2 whole cloves
1 large onion
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced (3 cups)
1/2 lb cooked ham or 1/2 lb ham hock, diced (whichever)
1/2 lb smoked sausage or 1/2 lb Little Smokies sausage, sliced
2 large leeks, well washed and sliced
2 large celery ribs, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Wash and sort peas.
  • Combine peas, water, salt, pepper, bay leaf and thyme in a large pot or Dutch oven.
  • Press cloves into onion, and add to pot (if using a ham hock you may wish to add it now so it becomes more tender- but NOT the smoked sausage, as they split if overcooked).
  • Bring mixture to a boil, then lower heat, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until peas are tender, about 1 hour.
  • Remove the onion and bay leaf.
  • Puree soup through a coarse sieve or in batches in the blender (be careful not to burn yourself!); return mixture to the pot.
  • (I like to leave a little bit not pureed for texture).
  • Add potatoes, ham, sausage.
  • leek and celery.
  • Simmer uncovered about 25-35 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  • Taste for seasoning and garnish soup with chopped parsley before serving.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have ham leftover from Easter, and this soup is a great way to use it up.

I love the smoky flavor of this soup. The smoked sausage and the smoked paprika give it a really nice depth of flavor.

I made this soup in my slow cooker, and it turned out perfectly. It was so easy to just throw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let it cook all day.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out too thick. I had to add more water to thin it out.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper to make it flavorful.
