Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb split peas, rinsed and drained
9 cups water
4 carrots, peeled and diced
1 large onion, diced
celery, 1/2 cup diced
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons dried herbs de provence seasoning
2 teaspoons kosher salt
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Put rinsed, drained split peas into your soup pot and add 9 cups water.
  • Heat to boiling. Peas will foam up. Scoop foam off top and discard until foam stops forming.
  • Add carrots, onion, celery, bay leaves, garlic and Herbs de Provence seasoning.
  • When it comes to a boil, cover the pot, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 45 minutes or until peas are very tender.
  • Remove bay leaves.
  • Add salt and freshly ground pepper at the end of cooking time.
  • Puree or not, as you wish. I never do as I enjoy the rustic texture.
