CANADIAN YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HAM

Canadian Yellow Split Pea Soup with Ham image

Creamy yellow pea soup studded with bits of ham, carrots, celery, and thyme. There is nothing like this one on a cold day! I am a Canadian now living in the US. and cannot get Habitant® soup anymore, so I came up with this version. I think it is as good as the real thing, if not better, because it is homemade.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups dried yellow peas, whole (split peas work if whole peas are not available)
1/4 lb bacon or 1/4 lb salt pork, thickly sliced, diced
1 yellow onion, diced
1 celery, diced
5 cups chicken stock
2 carrots, diced
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon dried savory
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 pinch pepper, to taste

Steps:

Wash peas and soak them in water overnight, for at least 8 hours.
If using salted pork, cut in thick slices and boil in water for 10 minutes before dicing. In a large heavy-bottomed pot, fry bacon or pork until it starts to brown.
Add onion and celery and cook until soft.
Add chicken broth, drained peas, carrots, bay leaf, savory, and parsley. Bring to a boil. Let simmer for two to three hours, until peas are tender. Stir soup from time to time to prevent it from sticking.
Season with salt and pepper at the end.
Serve in bowls with parsley and heavy bread on the side.

FRENCH-CANADIAN PEA SOUP (SOUPE AUX POIS)

French-Canadian Pea Soup (Soupe aux pois) image

A traditional dish for Fridays (a legacy from Quebec's religious past). After cooking, I like to remove about half the peas and puree them in order to thicken the soup. I use a ham bone or pork hocks instead of salt pork. The savoury is essential to get the right flavour. You can also soak the peas overnight instead of using the quick-soak method.
