OLD-FASHIONED SPLIT PEA SOUP WITH HAM BONE
Not only is this old-fashioned favorite a snap to make but it's economical, too. Carrots, celery and onion accent the subtle flavor of the split peas, while a ham bone adds a meaty touch to this hearty soup. It's sure to chase away autumn's chill. -Laurie Todd, Columbus, Mississippi

HAM AND SPLIT PEA SOUP
Steps:
- Place the peas in a large pot or bowl, cover with water by 2 inches and soak 8 hours or overnight. Drain the peas and set aside.
- Score the ham hock. Place in a pot, cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 1 hour. Drain and set aside.
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the celery and carrots and cook, stirring, until just soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.
- 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.

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.
SPLIT PEA AND HAM SOUP II
I am fifty years old, and I picked this recipe up watching my mother make it when I war young, and I'm sure she learned it from her mother. It's a great Split Pea soup recipe for the frugal. Serve with crusty French bread for dunking, a sprinkle of pepper and a pat of butter on the top of the soup.
