With the very cold temperatures in January this soup from Mable Hoffman's Crockery Cookery will warm your family all the way through, and you will love the ease of preparation. I love to serve Irish Soda Bread with pea soup. Ingredients:
1 lb split peas |
1 ham bone (with some meat left on) or 2 ham hocks |
1 carrot, peeled and diced |
1 onion, diced |
1 small potato, peeled and diced |
1 link smoked sausage, sliced |
1 celery rib, diced |
8 cups water |
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste after soup has cooked) |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine peas, ham bone or hocks, carrot, onion, potato, sausage, celery, water, salt (if using)and pepper in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low 8 to 10 hours. 2. Remove ham bone; cut meat off bones, dice meat, and discard bones.Return meat to soup. 3. Taste and add salt, if needed. Serve soup hot. |
