First time to cook with organic split green peas. If I have, it's been a very long time, and we cannot find these (organic) in our area stores. I re-stocked while out restocking, where bulk foods are so much less expensive. Of course seasonings are dried herbs from the garden (other than the bay leaf).
I can say, that we loved the soup, but I adjusted a soup recipe from stove top to crock pot (again). The split peas do break down in a crock pot soup, but I will be buying more of them, especially over winter months. I will be using a different meat next time too I think. We did not have "Farmers Sausage" so I adapted, but still good.
The recipe is from Mennonites Girls can Cook - Anderson's Pea Soup.
It will be 14 degrees warmer today, but the bitter cold plans to return again. I am so busy making up for the 6 weeks of not being able to clean like I normally clean/upkeep, but it's getting done. I completely forgot to get a photo of the current book.
