How to make Split Pea Soup

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tbs. olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
3/4 pound ham, chopped into 1/2 inch cubes
1 bay leaf
6 cups water
4 cups broth
1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
1 lb. dried split peas, rinsed just before adding them to the crock pot
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet. Cook the onions, celery, and carrots until just tender. Add the ham and cook for another minute.
  • Transfer the vegetables and ham to a crock pot. Add the remaining ingredients to the crock pot and cook on high for 4 to 5 hours, or on low for 6 to 8 hours. The soup is done when the split peas are very tender.
  • Remove the bay leaf and puree the soup with an immersion blender, leaving some chunks of ham and carrots. This recipe yields 12 cups of soup.
