I wanted to save this before I tried it. It is a bit different from the other Moosewood Golden Split Pea Sweet Potato Soup already posted on Zaar. This came from a January 1992 Bon Appetit article on the Moosewood Restaurant.

GOLDEN SPLIT PEA SOUP

This is from my Low-Fat Moosewood cookbook. Your house will smell like an Indian restaurant! The soup is a beautiful dark gold color. Don't use green or brown lentils, it just won't be the same. This makes a lot, but you can freeze it. Even my one year old loves this! Serve topped with plain yogurt and chopped cilantro. Pass pita bread.

- For a richer flavor, use vegetable broth instead of water. - Add a bay leaf, a pinch of cayenne pepper, or a teaspoon of dried thyme for extra depth of flavor. - To make the soup creamier, blend a portion of the soup until smooth and then stir it back into the pot. - Serve the soup with a variety of toppings, such as chopped fresh herbs, crumbled bacon, or a dollop of sour cream. - For a vegan version, omit the butter and use a plant-based milk instead of regular milk.
