• Add the ham hock and ham and cook, stirring, until beginning to brown. Add the drained peas, salt, pepper, and pepper flakes, and cook, stirring for 2 minutes. Add 8 cups of water, the bay leaf and thyme, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the peas are tender, about 1 hour. (Add more water as needed, if the soup becomes too thick or dry.)
• Remove the bay leaf and discard. Adjust the seasoning, to taste, and serve immediately with Parmesan Truffled Chips on top.
• Using a mandolin or very sharp, heavy knife, slice the potatoes into rounds as thin as possible, and place in a large bowl of water to prevent discoloration.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy pot to between 340 and 350 degrees F.
• Pat the potatoes completely dry. Add to the oil in batches and cook until golden brown, stirring with a long handled spoon to turn and cook evenly, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and place in a large bowl. Toss with the cheese, truffle oil, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately.

SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HAM

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat. Add the olive oil and ham. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the ham pieces are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high; add the onion, carrot, and celery and continue to cook until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 5 more minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 more minute.
• Meanwhile, place the split peas in a colander. Rinse them well and pick through and discard any tiny pebbles or debris.
• Add the chicken stock, dried thyme and bay leaf, if using. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour and 30 minutes until the peas "split" open in the pot and are very tender. (If the pot stops simmering during cooking, increase the heat to medium until it returns to a simmer, then reduce the heat back to medium-low). Add 1/2 to 1 cup of water to reach desired consistency.
• Season with the salt and black pepper. Serve topped with chopped parsley, if preferred.

CANADIAN YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HAM

• Place split peas, ham bone, carrots, onion, celery, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and pepper into a large pot; pour in water. Bring mixture to a boil and skim off any foam with a spoon.

• Remove ham bone from soup; strip meat from ham bone, chop meat, and return it to the pot.

SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HAM

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven or 5-quart heavy pot with a lid, heat oil over medium. Add onion, carrots, celery, and thyme; season with salt and pepper. Cook until vegetables begin to soften, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Add broth, split peas, ham bone, and 5 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and partially cover; simmer until peas are soft, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make croutons: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add bread and cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Remove and discard bone from soup. Working in batches, puree only 1/2 the soup in a blender (don't overfill); return to pot. Add ham cubes, and simmer until heated through. If necessary, thin with water. Add salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste. Serve topped with croutons.

SPLIT PEA & GREEN PEA SMOKED HAM SOUP

Steps:

• Put the gammon in a very large pan with 2 litres water and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and drain off the water - this helps to get rid of some of the saltiness. Recover with 2 litres cold water and bring to the boil again. Put everything but the frozen peas into the pan and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 1½-2½ hrs, topping up the water as and when you need to, to a similar level it started at. As the ham cooks and softens, you can halve it if you want, so it is all submerged under the liquid. When the ham is tender enough to pull into shreds, it is ready.
• Lift out the ham, peel off and discard the skin. While it is still hot (wear a clean pair of rubber gloves), shred the meat. Remove bay from the soup and stir in the frozen peas. Simmer for 1 min, then blend until smooth. Add a splash of water if too thick, and return to the pan to heat through if it has cooled, or if you are making ahead.
• When you are ready to serve, mix the hot soup with most of the ham - gently reheat if made ahead. Serve in bowls with the remaining ham scattered on top, and eat with crusty bread and butter.
