INSTANT POT BEST SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• Add butter to the Instant Pot or Ninja Foodi and hit "Sauté." Once the butter's melted and bubbling, add the onions, celery and carrots. Let sauté for 5 minutes, stirring and setting and then add in the bacon or pancetta (if using in place of a ham bone). Allow to cook for another 10 minutes as it will cook like a tender ham
• Add in the Sherry and allow to simmer for another minute. Then, add in the broth, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, thyme, oregano bay leaves and split peas (if using a ham bone/hock, add that in now as well)
• Secure the lid and hit "Keep Warm/Cancel" and then hit "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" and cook for 15 minutes at high pressure. Allow a 15 minute natural release when done followed by a quick release
• Stir all the contents in the pot from the bottom up as the split peas will have basically become a purée and will thicken the soup immediately once stirred up. If you want a slightly thinner soup, add in another cup of your choice of broth now
• Stir in the Boursin (if using, which I suggest) until melded
• Enjoy! *NOTE: See the yellow "Jeffrey Sez" section on how to reheat any leftovers

INSTANT POT SPLIT PEA SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Put your Instant Pot on saute and add your olive oil, onions and ham.
• Cook for a few minutes just so onions soften and ham juices come out a bit and add flavor to the rest of your soup. Turn pot off now.
• Add all other ingredients and stir well so salt dissolves (can wait and add salt at end if preferred).
• Put your lid on and close steam valve.
• Set to manual, pressure, high for 17 minutes.
• Allow to naturally release the steam for 5 minutes, then slowly release rest of steam.
• Stir and serve. The longer it sits the thicker it will become. Top with cheese if desired.Add more broth to thin it out the next day.

INSTANT POT SPLIT PEA SOUP

Steps:

• Pour the chicken broth into an Instant Pot or other multi-cooker and set to sauté. Add the thyme, ham and butter. While the broth heats, chop the celery, cut the carrots into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, halve the leek lengthwise and thinly slice and chop the garlic; add the vegetables to the pot as you cut them.
• Rinse the split peas in a colander, discarding any small stones, then add to the pot. Secure the lid, making sure the steam valve is in the sealing position, and set the cooker to high pressure for 15 minutes. When the time is up, carefully turn the steam valve to the venting position to release the pressure.
• Turn off the cooker. Remove the lid and stir the soup; discard the thyme sprigs. Thin the soup with up to 1 cup water if needed (the soup will continue to thicken as it cools). Season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with the pita chips.
