SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, cover peas with 2 quarts cold water and soak overnight. If you need a faster method, simmer the peas gently for 2 minutes, and then soak for l hour.
• Once peas are soaked, add ham bone, onion, salt, pepper and marjoram. Cover, bring to boil and then simmer for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
• Remove bone; cut off meat, dice and return meat to soup. Add celery, carrots and potatoes. Cook slowly, uncovered for 30 to 40 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.

PAP'S RIBS AND SPLIT PEA STEW

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a 6-quart Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat and add the oil. When hot, add the ribs and cook until brown on both sides, 3 to 6 minutes. Remove the ribs to a plate and set aside.
• Add the carrot, celery, onion, 1 tablespoon salt and cabbage if using and sweat the vegetables for about 3 minutes. Add the split peas, potatoes, garlic, bay leaf, smoked meat, cayenne pepper, ribs, 2 1/2 quarts water and 1 teaspoon pepper and bring to a simmer, skimming the foam that will rise to the surface as the water comes up to heat. When the liquid is at a simmer, lay the bacon slices on top of the stew, transfer to the oven and cook until the peas and ribs are tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Discard the bay leaf. Remove the smoked meat from the soup. If using a ham hock, when it's cool enough to handle, pick off the meat and add it back to the soup (discard the bone). If using kielbasa, cut into slices and add it back to the soup. Chop up the bacon and add it to the soup.
• To serve, divide the ribs among bowls and ladle the soup over them.

PAM'S SPLIT PEA SOUP FOR 2

Steps:

• 1. Prepare the vegetables, and melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add vegetables and cook over medium heat until softened. Add the proscuitto and the hot dog (cut into 1/4" rounds) and stir. Cook for about 10 minutes.
• 2. Add water and chicken broth to the pot containing the vegetables and meats. Add split peas which have been picked over to remove any small stones or questionable looking peas. Stir well.
• 3. Stab a toothpick through the two bay leaves and the garlic clove and add to pot. (This makes them easier to find and remove before serving.) Add remaining seasonings and stir.
• 4. Simmer on medium-low until the peas are tender and falling apart. Stir occasionally to avoid scorching the bottom. (See note below for thicker soup.)
• 5. Remove parsley sprigs and toothpick with bay leaves and garlic. For smoother soup, scoop out a cup or more, remove the hotdog slices (return to pot) and blend in a blender or food processor. Return blended soup to the pot and heat through. Adjust seasonings to taste.
• 6. Serve with a nice crusty bread and salad, or with a grilled cheese sandwich. You can also add some creme fraiche or a dollop of sour cream to the top when serving and stir it in when you eat. Chopped parsley is also an optional garnish.
• 7. Note: This is a soup, not a thick "stoup". If you like your split pea soup thicker, increase the split peas (up to 1 3/4 to 2 cups) or thicken it with either a roux of butter and flour or a slurry of flour and water during the final cooking process.
• 8. I will tell you that if you use this recipe and let the soup sit and reheat it, it will be thicker. So if you are going to eat it right away, use the larger amount of peas, but if you plan on making it earlier in the day and reheating it, it will be thickened more. If it gets too thick, just add a little chicken broth to thin it.
