Split Pea Soup

Rating
1/2 lb of dried green split peas
4-6 cups of water — negligible
1 Ham Hock or Ham Bone with meat still on it
1 bay leaf
1/2 white or yellow onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tbsp oil
salt, pepper to taste
Instructions
Wash and drain the dried peas. Watch out for tiny ROCKS in the peas… the occur every so often and can break your teeth if left in! If you’d like to, cut off the ham from the bones, cube it and set aside. Some people leave it on and then cut it off after cooking, but cutting it off before will decrease the saltiness of the soup.
Heat up the oil in a large pot, add the onion, celery, and carrot. Cook over medium heat until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute more.
Add the water, peas, ham bones, bay leaf, and bring to a boil. Cook half covered over low heat for about 1 to 1.5 hours stirring occasionally. When you get near the end of cooking, you can add the cubed ham if you’ve reserved it. Add salt and pepper to taste. Delicious split pea soup is now ready!
