A thick and hearty soup, great topped with some crumbled feta or blue cheese, and served with a crusty bread.
Split Pea Soup (+)
Directions
Rinse the dried peas with cold water and drain thoroughly. (They do not need to be soaked. Use the food processor to chop all the vegetables with a few pulses of the steel blade; it saves a lot of time, and the soup is smoother in texture.)
In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat, and add the celery, carrots, onion, garlic, and ground pepper. Sauté until slightly wilted, about 5 minutes or longer.
In a stock pot, add the sautéed vegetables and stir in the rinsed peas, water, broth, bay leaves, thyme and sugar.
Bring this mixture to a boil, and then, reduce the heat to simmer, and partially cover the pan. Stir occasionally. The soup should be thick and the peas soft or mushy (this may take 1 to 1 1/2 hours of cooking). Add the extra bouillon to taste, and add extra water, about 1/4 c., if the soup appears too thick for your liking. Remove the bay leaf before serving and discard. Doubles easily, and freezes well.
