This old-fashioned favorite is not only a snap to make but it's economical, too, confirms Laurie Todd of Columbus, Mississippi. Carrots, celery and onion accent the subtle flavor of the split peas, while a ham bone adds a meaty touch to this hearty soup. It's sure to chase away autumn's chill.

I don't know why you boil the peas to start. My soup has been cooking for hours and is still watery and my peas have vanished :( I will try recipe again minus that pre-boil part. Would be nice to see a pea :)

Personally I would decrease water by a quart.Ham has alot of water in it

Very good split pea soup. I had to soak my peas for 4 hours, so the soup took a long time to make. It also didn't turn out as thick as other split pea soups. I ended up taking two cups of water out so it wouldn't overflow on my stove, but it was still a thinner split pea soup. However, it was very good and my husband loved it.

I've never made split pea soup before, and was a bit unsure how to make it. This recipe is simple, easy and DELICIOUS!! I did not add any of the spices outside of salt & pepper and I would leave the lid slightly off to allow steam to escape as it cause a mess on my stove. But this recipe is excellent and produces a hearty, thick soup.

I did not change a thing. The time for cooking was right. Not one crunchy pea. The flavor was great. Soaked for 4 hours. No salt ham was salty enough for us.
