HEARTY SPLIT PEA AND HAM SOUP

Steps:

• Melt 3 Tbsp of butter in a stock pot and then add the carrots, onion, and celery and cook for 3 minutes. Next, add the garlic, parsley, and black pepper and cook for 1 more minute. (This step adds a nice sweetness to the vegetables, but if you're making your soup in a slow cooker, just dump the ingredients into the cooker and skip sautéing the vegetables.)
• Add the ham bone, split peas, and water to the pot and stir to evenly combine the vegetables and split peas. Cook the soup at a simmer for 2-2½ hours. Stir the soup periodically and scrape the bottom of the pot to prevent burning. The soup can also be cooked in a slow cooker on high heat for 4-5 hours, or on low heat for 8-10 hours. Midway through your cooking time, add the potatoes to the pot so that they don't become too soft. The soup is done when the split peas are soft and breaking apart and the ham is falling off the bone.
• The last step is to remove the bone from the pot and any gristle that may have fallen off of it. Stir in 2 C of diced ham, bring back up to a simmer, and then remove the soup from the heat. Serve immediately. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large pot on medium heat, then add onion, celery and carrots and cook, stirring often, until onion is softened.
• Season with thyme, bay leaves, salt and pepper, then add in split peas, ham hock and 1.5 litres of stock. Bring to boil, then cover and reduce to a simmer for 1.5 hours, or until peas are soft. You'll want to check on the soup at the 1 hour mark, and if it's getting too thick, add in some more stock.
• Remove the ham hock from the pot and onto a chopping board. Shred the ham off the bone and into bite sized pieces with a fork. Add the meat back into the soup and discard the bones and skin.
• Remove the bay leaves and serve as is or with some crusty bread.
