I have a batch of this cooking now and thought I would post it. I usually
double the recipe and freeze it in individual servings. It's easy and
always tastes great.
From an old Betty Crocker Cookbook
Ingredients:
8
1
1
1
1
1
2
2
cups water
pound dried split peas (about 2-1/4 cups)
to 2 lb smoked ham
med onion
tsp salt
/4 tsp pepper
or 3 carrots chopped
or 3 stalks celery chopped
Heat water and peas to boiling. Boil for 2 minutes, then remove from heat
and cover. Let sit for 1 hour.
Add ham (whole), onion, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer until peas are
tender, about 1 hour.
Remove ham and trim meat from bone. (I usually use 1 lb boneless smoked ham)
Cut ham to 1/2 inch pieces. Stir ham, carrots, and celery into soup. Cover
and simmer until veggies are tender, about 45 minutes.
Like I said, it freezes well and is a very convenient side to a sandwich or
whatever.
