Split Pea Soup.
Posted: Sun Sep 27, 2020 9:10 pm
1.5 pounds of ham ( I usually just grab a ham 'slab' and add some 'turkey ham' )
7 quarts of chicken stock - as an alternative you can use the cubes, but add one extra beef cube).
1 big onion.
6 or more garlic cloves
1/2 pound of carrots.
1/2 stick of butter.
2 bay leaves
salt and pepper to taste (or cayenne or all)
Take all of the 'dry' ingredients (ham, onion, garlic, carrots, etc) and fry them. Fry them until you get a good paste on the bottom of the pan. Add 1 cup of water and all of your broth (if using cubes). Let that simmer for another 15 minutes or until you get a good bottom 'scum' on the pan. Then add the water and wait until it boils. Add in the drained rinsed split peas ( a pound ) ...
Let it cool for a few hours before you freeze/fridge etc.
THAT is two weeks of food.
