1 Tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onion ((1 medium))
1 1/4 cups chopped celery ((about 3 ribs))
1 tsp minced garlic ((1 clove))
4 cups unsalted chicken broth
4 cups water
1 (16 oz) bag dried split peas, (picked over and rinsed)
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh thyme, (or 1/2 tsp dried)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 lb meaty ham bone (or ham shanks)
1 cup chopped carrots
Chopped fresh parsley, (for garnish (optional))

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery and saute 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute 1 minute longer.
  • Pour in chicken broth and water. Add split peas, bay leaves and thyme. Season lightly with salt and with pepper to taste (I like to wait to add more salt until the end to see how salty the ham has made the soup).
  • Nestle ham bone into soup mixture. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce to low. Cover and let simmer, stirring occasionally until peas and ham are tender, about 60 - 80 minutes.
  • Remove ham from soup, let rest 10 minutes then shred or dice meat portion into pieces, cover.
  • Meanwhile add carrots* to soup. Cover soup and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until peas have mostly broken down, about 30 minutes longer**.

INSTANT POT® SPLIT PEA AND HAM SOUP



Instant Pot® Split Pea and Ham Soup image

Cooking split peas under pressure makes them nearly instantly creamy. This recipe is very close to a classic split pea soup, but I have the option of cooking with or without a meaty ham bone. If you just have ham, it will be just as great with the combination of celery, carrots, onions, potatoes, and split peas. Get ready for a thick and flavorful broth!

SPLIT PEA SOUP



Split Pea Soup image

This is Megan's version of split pea soup, my version skips the croutons and includes ham. But, because we occasionally have to make something she will eat, I just add the ham to my bowl. If you don't have a vegetarian in your house, putting ham or a ham bone in the soup while it is cooking adds a great flavor.

Yield serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound dried split peas
2 carrots
1 onion
2 bay leaves
12 cups water
Salt and pepper
5 slices bread
1/3 cup melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • To prepare the soup: Pour the peas into a stockpot and carefully check them for any foreign objects. (I know it sounds weird, but occasionally small stones will slip through during processing.)
  • Peel the carrots and onion and dice them into about 1/2-inch pieces. Place the carrots, onion, bay leaves, and water into the stockpot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Decrease the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the peas have broken down. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Cut the bread into 1/2-inch cubes and place them on a baking sheet. Combine the butter and garlic powder in a small bowl and pour over the bread cubes. Toss the bread cubes until they are evenly coated and bake them for 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and top with the croutons.
  • It's time to pull out that math you learned in third grade:
  • 2 cups = 1 pint
  • 2 pints = 1 quart
  • 4 quarts = 1 gallon
  • If you remember this, then you won't panic when a recipe calls for 2 quarts of water and you only have a 1-cup measure. You will know:
  • 2 quarts = 4 pints = 8 cups

Tips:

  • Use a variety of split peas. Split peas come in different colors, including green, yellow, and red. Each type has a slightly different flavor, so using a mix can create a more complex soup.
  • Soak the peas overnight. Soaking the peas overnight will help them cook more evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is flavorful and not too salty.
  • Season the soup well. Split pea soup can be bland if it's not seasoned properly. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or chives, can add a pop of color and flavor to the soup.

Conclusion:

Split pea soup is a delicious, hearty, and nutritious soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a relatively inexpensive and easy soup to make. With a few simple tips, you can make a split pea soup that your whole family will love.
