An unusual combination of ingredients but I thought this made an extra-special split pea soup. Peas soak overnight.

This soup was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it helped a bit. I also think it would have been better with some fresh herbs, like parsley or cilantro.

This soup was delicious! I used ground lamb instead of lamb shoulder, and it turned out great. The soup was flavorful and hearty, and the dill added a nice freshness. I will definitely be making this soup again.
