Did you buy dried split peas? If you did arent they flavorless rather than say canned beans or frozen? Im only asking because I love split pea soup but I dont make it . Curious to know how to make good split pea or whole pea soup.

Yes I used dried split peas. I think they had quite a bit of flavour. The soup tasted like peas lol.

I start off with a good smoked ham,boiled.I check the stock often while reducing,depending on the ham,it can get too salty,then if you have to dilute it it will not be as good.
I also use the drippings from the ham,and the bone to make a stock from a roasted ham.I use dried yellow peas.

to blend or not to blend that is the question.


my dad made split pea soup when ever he was home sick from work , lots of bay , a fair amount of pepper but he ran it through the blender and I prefer un-blended.

I have always just used dried split peas , if I think about it I soak the peas over night. if not a good rinse and let them set for while I cut up the carrots , and onions.

almost always have ham hocks in the freezer but any time I can scavenge a ham bone from a family gathering I will.

No need to pre soak the peas. Add some chopped celery and onion to the pot of soup too!

Bring it all to a boil then turn the heat to low, scoop all the foam off the surface and let it simmer for about 2-2.5 hours. The peas will soften up in that time and even mush. The carrots will mostly dissolve.

5 cups of split peas
5 grated carrots
7 celery stalks
1 onion
4 bay leaves
1 tablespoon of salt
1 teaspoon of pepper
Ham bone with some ham still on
12 cups of water

That’s the recipe I followed.

Men who help their wife out around the house get to use their man card more often and with more satisfactory results. Probably just jealousy. laugh

Just about what I do only I add whole baby carrots and at least 1 jalapeno I skip the salt and add crushed red pepper i like to buy one small boneless ham and just dice it and add it to the pot. I use a crook pot most of the time.

Yup! Oh and give it a stir every now and then while it’s simmering. The split peas will start out sticking together in a clump, but they break apart as they heat up.
