Thick as Pea Soup
This is comfort food at its best. To serve leftovers, stir in a bit of vegetable broth until desired consistency (soup will thicken in the refrigerator).
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups dry split peas, rinsed
4 cups water
4 tablespoons vegetable broth powder
1 teaspoon marjoram
1 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper, fine grind
1 bay leaf
1 cup cooked, peeled, and coarsely chopped sweet potatoes
1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
4 cups water
4 tablespoons vegetable broth powder
1 teaspoon marjoram
1 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper, fine grind
1 bay leaf
1 cup cooked, peeled, and coarsely chopped sweet potatoes
1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
Directions
Combine split peas, water, vegetable broth powder, and spices in a soup pot. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until peas are tender, about 60 to 90 minutes. (Stir occasionally, adding more liquid if necessary.) Gently stir in the sweet potatoes and remove the bay leaf. Heat until potatoes are warm. Serve each bowl topped with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.
