ingredients
- 2 lbs split peas
- 10 ounces ham, spiral sliced ends and pieces
- 1 teaspoon bouillon, paste, Better Than Bullion Vegetable
- 1 teaspoon paprika, smokey
- 1 1⁄2 cups carrots, chopped
- 3 cups onions, chopped
- 1 cup celery, chopped
- 1 tablespoon tony chachere's creole seasoning salt (to taste, I add 1 tsp more)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper, ground
- 3 bay leaves
directions
- *** Though this uses Creole Seasonings, I do not like garlic in the recipe. Since there is no garlic, I can't by all rights call it creole. ***.
- Wash peas.
- Cover with 1 inch water and bring to boil.
- Cook slowly, adding water as necessary, until peas begin to soften.
- Add ham, bullion, paprika, salt and pepper, and celery, cook 10 minutes.
- Add remaining vegetables.
- Cook to desired consistency. I add veggies late because I like my pea soup to have chunks. If you like pureed soup, you can add earlier.
