KIELBASA SPLIT PEA SOUP
World traveler Andrew Zimmern calls this thick and hearty split pea soup "Grandma Zimmern's Pot of Love," reminding us that no matter where our journeys take us, there's nothing quite like home cooking. Chef Zimmern likes to use a combo of three smoked sausages, but feel free to go full-on kielbasa to make this soul-satisfying meal in a bowl.

Steps:
- In a small skillet, toast the caraway seeds over medium heat, stirring until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Finely grind the seeds in a spice grinder. Set aside. Cut the Ukrainian sausage, kielbasa, and Krakowska into 4-inch pieces; remove and discard the casing of the Krakowska. In a Dutch oven or large pot, melt the butter. Add the sausage and cook over medium heat until browned all over, 10-15 minutes. While the sausages are browning, thinly slice the celery. Trim escarole, then thinly slice into ribbons. Cut off fennel fronds and reserve for garnish; remove outer layer of the fennel, then thinly slice the inner bulb. Peel and trim onion, then roughly chop into small chunks. Trim carrots, cut in half lengthwise, then slice into ⅛-inch half-moon shapes.
- Remove browned sausages from pot and transfer to a plate to cool slightly, reserving the drippings. (Note: Refrigerate sausages if not using within 1 hour.) Meanwhile, over medium heat, sauté onions and fennel with a pinch of salt in the sausage drippings. Add ground caraway seeds and another pinch of salt while the onion/fennel mixture browns, 3-4 minutes. Bundle thyme sprigs with kitchen twine to make a bouquet garni, and add it to the pot. Add carrots and celery; stir, then sweat, 60-90 seconds. Add ham hock, escarole, yellow and green split peas. Stir to combine, then add chicken stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until peas are tender, about 60-80 minutes.
- Remove ham hock and set aside. Thinly slice the sausages; add them to the soup and simmer until the sausages are heated through, 8-10 minutes. Meanwhile, pull the meat off the ham hock, slice, add to the soup and simmer, 4-5 more minutes.
- Remove bouquet garni and discard. Season the stew with salt, vinegar, and hot sauce. Garnish with reserved fennel fronds and freshly ground white peppercorns, and serve with baguette slices.
BEST EVER SPLIT PEA

Steps:
- Heat the butter in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Do not brown.
- Add the broth, water, ham steak, bacon, peas, thyme sprigs, and bay leaves. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, stirring frequently to keep the peas from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the peas are tender but not falling apart, about 45 minutes.
- Remove the ham steak and place it on a plate; cover with foil and set aside. Stir in the carrots and celery and continue to simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender and the peas have almost completely broken down, about 30 minutes longer.
- Meanwhile, shred the ham steak into small bite-size pieces with two forks. Cover with foil again.
- Remove and discard the thyme sprigs, bay leaves, and bacon slices. Add the shredded ham to the soup and return to a simmer. Add a few grinds of pepper, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary (depending on the saltiness of the ham and bacon you used, you may need an additional ¼ to ½ teaspoon salt). Ladle the soup into bowls and top with fresh croutons, if using. (The soup will thicken as it sits on the stove; thin it with water and adjust seasoning as necessary.)
- Note: A ham steak is a thick slice of cooked ham cut from a whole ham roast. They can be found packaged in the refrigerated meat section of the supermarket, near the bacon.
- Note: Regular sliced bacon can be used, but the thinner slices are a little harder to remove from the soup.
- To Make Fresh Croutons: Melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 2 cups of cubed good-quality French or Italian bread and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and toasted, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Make-Ahead/Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The soup can be made up to 3 days ahead of time and refrigerated, or frozen for up to 3 months. Defrost the soup in the refrigerator for 12 hours and then reheat it on the stovetop over medium heat until hot. The soup will thicken once cool, so thin with water and adjust seasoning as necessary.

CARAWAY SPLIT-PEA SOUP
I couldn't believe how extraordinary split-peas taste when combined with caraway seeds. You could add bacon or ham, but I think it tastes just fine without meat.
