Similar to my recipe, but I use less garlic. And I use leftover bone with meat on and cook until all disintegrates. Serve with chopped green onion and asiago artisan bread.
I made this for supper the other day. Everyone loved it!!
Absolutely amazing...delicious!
I love split pea soup, and I love this recipe because it is so simple. I've made it several times and have never been disappointed. Unfortunately, I'm the only person in my house that seems to like it. Drives me crazy because I always have so much in left overs. It's a good thing I can freeze it. My only suggestion would be to add a ham hock for some extra flavor. I'm putting this in the crock pot over night tonight, so I can have it for lunch tomorrow.
I too made this for the first time and it was easy to make and it tasted delicious. My brother who lives in Canada recommended it. He said, "this recipe rivals Mum's soup for sure." Yep, it sure did, as Mum's food was always the best. Here in South Africa, we mainly use smoked bacon bones and it really boosts the flavour. Thanks for the recipe!
I made this for the very first time. Was good but, my soup looked more brown than green. Don't know what I did wrong. Help ??
Perfect thick and richly satisfying meal on a cold cold winter night. Only problem I had with this was it made the whole house smell delicious all day and it takes like 8-10 hours to make so you can't have it anytime soon! I used canned chicken broth-- each can was 14.5 ounces and we were looking for 32 ounces total, oops. So I used 3 cans and just added another 1/4 of the package of split peas. Turned out great.Also I didn't have any thyme, so I substituted Basil. still yum!!
This soup was delicious and so easy to make. I highly recommend it!
Made this soup on this cold night; used leftover holiday spiral ham and we loved it. Nice touch with the rosemary; I used 1-3/4 cups of water and 1/4 cup white wine. Thank you for this great recipe. Will be making this recipe again!
This soup was easy and fantastic! My husband, who is a split pea fanatic said it was the best split pea soup he has ever had. I did add two potatoes cubed. Very hearty! Will definitely make again!
