Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup dried split peas
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 4 cups vegetable stock
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Salt and pepper to taste

    • Instructions

  • Rinse the peas: Start by rinsing your dried split peas under cool water to remove any impurities.
  • Sauté vegetables: In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots, sautéing until they begin to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add peas and liquid: Stir in the rinsed split peas and then pour in the vegetable stock. Toss in the bay leaf and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
  • Simmer: Once boiling, reduce the heat, cover, and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes or until the peas are tender. Stir occasionally, adding more broth or water as needed to achieve your desired consistency.
  • Blend if desired: If you prefer a creamier soup, blend about half of the soup and then return it to the pot. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy warm. Consider garnishing with fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor.
