Split Pea Soup

From marmay 15 years ago

This pea soup can be prepared vegetarian or with low sodium chicken stock. It is great with a thick piece of rye bread for a complete meal.

In a 4-quart stockpot on medium heat, saute the onions and garlic with the olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper until the onions are translucent, 10 to 15 minutes.
Add the carrots, all of split peas, and chicken stock.
Bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered
Skim off the foam while cooking.
simmer for about 60 minutes
when peas are soft use an immersion blender to puree peas, not too much just a bit to get thick
add cooked barley, kosher salt and pepper if needed
break out the rye bread and ladle i

I love split pea soup and this will be a good batch. You have a nice blend of flavors here. You might try a bit of cooked bacon for a flavor change. Thanks for the post.
