ANDERSEN'S SPLIT PEA SOUP (CROCK POT VERSION) COPYCAT



Andersen's Split Pea Soup (Crock Pot Version) Copycat image

This came from the Los Angeles Times via Liz at Recipegoldmine.com. It was a stove top soup, but the closest I've yet found to Anderson's which is a tradition in California. I modified it just a bit for the crock pot and made it a hair thicker to suit our tastes. You can also add bacon, ham, or ham hocks to enhance the flavor a bit.

ANDERSEN'S SPLIT PEA SOUP - COPYCAT



Andersen's Split Pea Soup - Copycat image

Anderson? Yeah, I'm talking about Anderson's Pea Soup in Buellton,California off Highway 101 very close to the "Dutchtown" of Solvang. Anyone who's ever driven on a long trip up the 5 or 101 freeways in California HAS to have seen these billboard signs seemingly in the middle of nowhere proclaiming: "Try Anderson's Split Pea Soup, only 227 miles!". I don't actually have a picture of one of the signs but I plan to take one next time I drive up north. This is some marketing genius who thought of this. There is absolutely nothing to do while driving up these long stretches of highway, but look at the scenery. So they just buy up some cheap ad billboard space in 50 mile increments or so and plop their signs down advertising how far it is to their Pea Soup Headquarters. I'd like to know how successful they are in getting people to think about Pea Soup... I know it's certainly worked on me! I recently decided to make use of the extra ham and ham hock bones that are inevitably left over from Sunday dinner. I've never tried to make Split Pea Soup so I stopped by the market and picked up a few bags.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lb dried split green peas
4 -6 cups chicken stock
2 ham hocks
1 bay leaf
1/2 onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tablespoon oil
salt, pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Wash and drain the dried peas. Watch out for tiny ROCKS in the peas... the occur every so often and can break your teeth if left in! If you'd like to, cut off the ham from the bones, cube it and set aside. Some people leave it on and then cut it off after cooking, but cutting it off before will decrease the saltiness of the soup.
  • Heat up the oil in a large pot, add the onion, celery, and carrot. Cook over medium heat until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute more.
  • Add the chicken stock, peas, ham bones, bay leaf, and bring to a boil. Cook half covered over low heat for about 1 to 1.5 hours stirring occasionally. When you get near the end of cooking, you can add the cubed ham. Add salt and pepper to taste. Delicious split pea soup is now ready!

2 cups green split peas
1 rib celery, coarsely chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1 dash ground red pepper
1 bay leaf
salt
pepper
cayenne pepper
garlic powder

Steps:

  • Combine water, peas, celery, carrot, onion, thyme, red pepper, and bay leaf in a slow cooker. (I sauteed onion, carrot, and celery first to add a depth of flavor) Season to taste with salt and pepper, garlic, and cayenne. Cook on low for 6 hours.

Tips:

  • Use a slow cooker to make the soup. This will allow the flavors to develop and meld together over time.
  • Add a ham bone or smoked sausage to the soup for extra flavor.
  • Use fresh, organic vegetables for the best flavor.
  • Do not overcook the soup. The peas should be tender but still hold their shape.
