FRENCH-CANADIAN PEA SOUP (SOUPE AUX POIS)
A traditional dish for Fridays (a legacy from Quebec's religious past). After cooking, I like to remove about half the peas and puree them in order to thicken the soup. I use a ham bone or pork hocks instead of salt pork. The savoury is essential to get the right flavour. You can also soak the peas overnight instead of using the quick-soak method.

TRADITIONAL FRENCH-CANADIAN SPLIT PEA SOUP
This is my family's recipe for old-fashioned French-Canadian split pea soup (or soupe aux pois, as it's known in Quebec). Made with split peas, smoked pork, vegetables and herbs, it simmers on the stovetop all afternoon long to keep your house (and your belly) warm on cold winter days.

Steps:
- In a very large heavy-bottomed pot set over medium-high heat, sweat the onions and carrots in butter for 5-7 minute, or until onions are soft and translucent.
- Stir in water, split peas, ham hock, bay leaves, thyme and savoury. Bring the soup to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the peas are soft and begin to fall apart into a puree.
- Remove the ham hock. Pull the meat away from the bone, and shred or chop into small dice. Set ham aside, and discard the bone. Remove bay leaves and discard these as well.
- Taste soup, and adjust seasoning as needed with salt and pepper. For a very smooth soup, use an immersion blender to puree completely, or leave as-is for a chunkier texture. Stir chopped ham back into the soup, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- This soup is excellent reheated. For a truly authentic version of Quebec's "soupe aux pois" use whole yellow peas, salt pork, and herbs. Outside fo Quebec, it tends to be difficult to find whole yellow peas so we typically have to settle for yellow split-peas. Alternatively to dried or fresh herbs, "herbes salees" (herbs preserved with salt) are frequently used; either home-made or purchased commercially. Pea soup prevails as a popular dish in restaurants where tourists can enjoy a true and authentic taste of old Quebec. If using whole dried yellow peas. Wash and sort the peas and soak in cold water overnight. Simply rinse before using, when using split-peas. Add the drained peas to a large pot; add the salt pork, onion, celery, carrots, parsley, bay leaf, savoury, water and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to the boil then reduce heat down to a simmer. Simmer over low heat, occasionally stirring, until the peas are very soft, about 2 hours. Add more water if needed. Remove the salt pork (if using); chop and return to soup. Discard bay leaf. Season to taste with salt and pepper. How to serve pea soup Following cooking, the pork is commonly diced and returned to the soup. Sometimes the pork or ham is removed, thinly sliced and served on the side or as a topping. Newfoundland Pea Soup Newfoundland Pea Soup is quite similar but typically includes more vegetables such as diced carrots and turnips, and the soup is often served topped with small dumplings. Split-pea soup with ham bone Use a ham bone or ham hock instead of the salt pork. Thick pea soup For a thicker consistency (although this is not traditional) a cup or two of cooked peas may be puréed then returned to the soup. Variations In some regional variations, garlic, leeks, different vegetables or a ham bone are added for flavor.

REAL FRENCH-CANADIAN PEA SOUP
This pea soup recipe has been in my family longer than anyone can remember, and is AT LEAST as old as my great, great grandmother, probably older than that even. My favorite soup ever, and now it is my husbands fave too. This is a vegan version, although it is lacto-vegetarian normally. Meat was only added to the soup by certain members of the family, and typically only for company.

WINTERTIME FRENCH STYLE SPLIT PEA SOUP
A wonderful wintertime pea soup with turmeric, adding a nice bright, cheerful color to the soup. This recipe is versatile, can easily be doubled and more veggies and ham can be added as desired. It is a great way to use the rest of that spiral ham; just be sure to trim all the fat. Adjust water and stock as needed. Especially if reheating, more stock or water should be added. Serve with crusty bread and enjoy!

CANADIAN YELLOW SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HAM
Creamy yellow pea soup studded with bits of ham, carrots, celery, and thyme. There is nothing like this one on a cold day! I am a Canadian now living in the US. and cannot get Habitant® soup anymore, so I came up with this version. I think it is as good as the real thing, if not better, because it is homemade.
