Ingredients:

Serving

8 oz dried yellow split peas
2 oz medium-size onions, peeled and cut into 8 wedges
4 slices bacon , cut into 1/2 inch pieces
3 cups water
1/2 tsp salt
garnish of finely snipped fresh sage

Directions:

Soak the peas overnight in water to cover by 2 .
Next day fry bacon in a soup pot until fat begins to melt, 1-2 minutes; add the onions and saute over medium heat until lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
Add the drained peas and water and bring to a boil; cover, reduce the heat and simmer, stirring frequently, for 45 minutes.
In a blender, puree 1 cup of the soup and add it back to the soup pot with the salt; simmer another 5 minutes; add more water if soup is too thick; serve with a garnish of finely snipped sage.
