Split Pea. (Im sure this might get a response similar to asparagus)
Nothing is better in my book than a bowl of split pea soup. Well maybe black bean.
Split Pea Soup (from memory)
1 Bag split peas
2 ham hocks
1 lb diced ham
2 celery stalks (dice)
1 lg onion (dice)
2 carrots (dice)
1 Red Bell Pepper (dice)
2-5 Jalepeneos (Dice)
2 Qts Chicken Stock (more for thinning the soup)
2-3 Bay Leaves
Salt, Pepper and Red Pepper Flakes TT
Place all ingredients in a stock pot and simmer slow till peas are soft or place all ingredients in a crock pot and cook on low 6-8 hours. When peas are soft remove hocks and bay leaves. Puree to desired consistency. Serve with crusty bread. Drizzle a little evoo over the top of the soup when in serving bowls and sprinkle a few red pepper flakes.
