2 cups dried split peas
8 cups water
2 chopped onions (or 1/2 cup dried)
6 chopped carrots (in bite size pieces)
6 celery stalks (sliced)
a few bay leaves (I buy wonderful ground bay leaves)
2 tsp salt
Pepper to taste
Cook until peas are tender (you can put in at night and it may be done when you wake up!). Ladle out 1/2 into blender to puree. Add back to soup so broth is thick.
If in a hurry, you can put soup on stove or in oven and it will take about 1- 1/2 hrs. for peas to be tender. If you eat meat, add large slices or chunks of ham, but don't take them out and blend them.
