(Experiment 255) Pea soup

Ingredients

  • 20 g butter
  • 470 g yellow dried split peas
  • 2-3 bay leaf
  • pinch savory
  • 3 stalks of celery diced
  • 2 diced carrots
  • 1 diced onion
  • 4 cups vegetable stock

Instructions

  • In a large pot, melt the butter and soften the carrots, onion, and celery. Meanwhile, rinse the pea under cold water. After 2-3 minutes add the peas, bay leaves, savory, and the stock. Cover and simmer for about an hour. Give it a swirl every 20 minutes or so. If it’s becoming too thick, add more stock or water. I had to add about an extra cup.
  • Remove the bay leaves. Do a taste test and adjust with salt and pepper.
